It is incredible how much extra hardware can make development easier. I find it so funny that our main instinct to speeding up a projects development is to throw people at projects (thus the "Mythical Man Month" book), when in reality you should be throwing hardware at it, and probably extra testing.

I mean, that'd be nice, but I definitely don't see that happening anytime in the next 5 years. The current plan is for it to be for debug only, and due to the IR rust emits, the gap between debug and release can be huge.
