"We don't need a laptop. The laptop has actually become not very helpful. So we were like, "Alright, get rid of the laptop." What will replace it? We looked at MPCs. We looked at all of the other options. I considered building a [Sequentix] P3. The sequencers that we've got are effectively the step up from the P3. And just like, when we looked into what Cirklon could do, it was everything that we knew, really. "
