I have one, Hero4 Black, they are super awesome but the ultra wide angle on them would mean you saw nothing of what they were unboxing. A good camcorder might make sense, but the Go Pro would be more of "show the surrounding office and all of the people standing around." We have a decent point and shoot camera. It actually takes some amazing video.

 I've got a Nikon AW100 with me in Nicaragua that does quite well. 
- 
 My IPhone 6s+ takes great video (surprisingly). I have used it a few times for Gig's and not only is the video good but the sound on it is pretty good too.

 It just arrived too!! I was actually on the phone with Scale when the box arrived. So excited to have all of this lab capacity. This is going to be fun. 
- 
 When do the rest of us get to play with it? 
- 
 As the main office has too much work to do today and has a SpiceCorps to head out to in a little bit (its a few hours away) we won't be able to unbox today. However tomorrow morning we will do an unboxing video and then our team can start playing! 
- 
 Take a box pic at least.

 Only 2 of them? Hmm... Bonus points for the Scale swag in the background, lol. 
- 
 That swag has been there since SpiceWorld.

 @dafyre said: When do the rest of us get to play with it? Definitely not for a week or two. Right now this is a hardware test in the NTG Offices in NY. It's not really for public consumption yet. I'm working with @Minion-Queen to look at the move to the enterprise colocation facility so that there can be more access to it in the near future.

 Turns out the boxes were only the switches and cables. The main boxes are supposed to ship tomorrow so a couple of business days yet before things will be arriving.

 The Scale cluster just arrived.

 Rails...

 Well, there are the actual rails...
- 
 Rails are a good start. 
- 
  
 Cords, faceplate, and a screwdriver... and instructional things to ignore.
- 
  
 And, there's the 1U node. 1 of 3 total!
