Today I learned you can buy tiny server rack replicas from Japanese vending machines.

Japan has shown the world that wonderful things can be distributed through a vending machine -- from tiny Nikon camera replicas, to Nintendo controller keychains. But I’m especially jealous of these server rack replicas discovered by Viktor Shpak featuring miniature Dell servers and Cisco switches plus tiny cables to connect them all together.

You can also buy them online it turns out, but you’ll be paying far more than what a Japanese gashapon machine charges.
