I've been lurking around for a while now, just got into pentesting this year (can be pretty addictive) and came across the Pineapple a handfull of months ago. Found myself trying to figure out how to "deploy" an old laptop w/Kali/Mint (in my garage, attic, car, etc) and decided that it was time for a Pineapple. Saw the M5 was coming and decided to wait, even watched the launch event. (yes, all my GF says now is "drink all the booze, hak all the things")
Almost done with the CBT Nuggets series, then I'm going to start with the Hak5 series. I've been on forums for my hobbies for many years now (cars, bikes, computing, lasers, XDA, etc) and this one is certainly interesting in its own way.
Just purchased a travel kit, I'm excited.
