@Obsolesce I have also found through experience that more memory on a SQL server does not necessarily improve performance. This is also true with VCPUs. I would monitor closely and change one thing at a time. Just my 2 pennies worth

@LostDungeon Bad idea! Never imply that your girl is not beautiful via a gift. False eye lashes will prompt the question of "why" to which you must say "I want you to become more beautiful" - this will not go well.

Get her a trip to a beauty spa instead. Tell her you want to pamper her.

@Emad-R So are you talking like something to help to ML community, like a ticketing system, or an inventory tracker? And ML users could help fund the project? Do you have something specific in mind?

@dbeato I was being a bit sarcastic, although I have seen a windows 10 update "hang" for more than a day. That said, it has gotten better.

@DustinB3403 I think the bigger issue that they cannot resolve is that you can do a full install of windows in about 40 minutes, but the updates take 4-40 hours. How can this even be conceivable? They could wipe out the OS and reinstall in less time then the updates.

I'll be the 3rd and suggest Brother - Solid printers and low cost supplies

@JaredBusch On your way to Dallas?

@DustinB3403 You are correct - It what I meant when I said users. And yes, it would fall outside MS guidelines. On the other hand, MS is so FUBAR on it's licensing schema that it's really hard to say what is kosher and what is not when nitpicking these kind of details.

Probably do not need a server license. Most of these type of apps can be run in Client/Server mode on a desktop so I think you would be fine. Bigger question is how many people are going to use the app? Just one? then a desktop or a VDI would be fine. If there is more than 5 accessing then I would move to a 3 tier with a VM using Windows Server.
