Because I could not help myself, me and @steveheist2.bsky.social estimated that this is roughly $270,000 in monitors … and $600,000 in monitor arms.

Based on a quick check of Dell’s monitor page, I believe the monitors are the Dell Pro 24 Plus Monitors, which cost about $189 each. They assuredly got a bulk deal, but the monitors alone cost $270,000

also reminds me of something @akkartik.name said about "vestiges" and "regressions" although those aren't exactly the same thing:
• vestige: something that was necessary that is no longer necessary (contrast chesterton's fence)
• regression: something that used to work that no longer does
• vestige: something that was necessary that is no longer necessary (contrast chesterton's fence)
• regression: something that used to work that no longer does
