We for sure love the support we've gotten from folks who say "Hey I don't need a full rack but I love what you're doing."

The issue isn't desire, it's more of focus and design difficulty. The design of the product starts from "what if you're building servers by the rack," and so a lot of choices make sense in that context, but not necessarily others. So building something smaller means effectively building a different product. And of course, many companies have multiple product lines, but they're also much more mature than we are: we've only shipped two racks so far (more to come soon!). And that's where the "focus" comes in: we need to build a sustainable company first, and then expand second. I can't speak to where the future goes, and if we will eventually go in that direction, or on what timescale, but what I can say is that we hear you on our side.
