Anything fancy or fun?
Nothing too fancy.
Dell R720 2 proc (8 cores each) system with 96GB RAM.
Using the PERC H710P with 1GB cache and 6x 4TB NL SAS (7.5k) Way more HDD space than I truly needed, but the current price on the 4TB NL SAS drives was cheaper than all but the 1TB. Only needed 4 drives in RAID10 for my space needs, but needed more IOPS, so added 2 drives. -
@JaredBusch We end up doing similar (adding drives for IOPS rather than space) quite often

Just booked airfare for the wife and kids to go to Japan for the summer. I love the IACE one day sale every February!
Wife and I had 4 phones constantly redialing from 09:00 until one connected (my VoIP desk phone btw) at 09:30. Felt like I was trying to get concert tickets in the 80's.
Non-Stop Chicago to Tokyo for $749 x 3 = WIN
We have not been able to travel non-stop for 3 years because of prices. Even now, a non-stop form Chicago to Tokyo is ~$2000

Awesome, congrats.
