Anyone upgrading their home lab wireless to Wi-Fi 7?

Rack Recommendations?
Hey All... I currently live in an apartment, and have been using a 12U rack for the past several years. I'm getting a little tired of crawling on the floor to change this little bugger around. I've also nearly filled it up at this point. Does anyone have a decent 25/27U rack that they would recommend. I don't want anything terribly expensive, so something under $500 would be preferable. I'm trying to plan some projects for 2026 that don't require buying memory or storage, and this one has been bubbling just below the surface for a while now. Preferably it would be something 4-post, open on the sides, but with an option to add panels later if it somehow becomes desirable.

Check this site and also check your local paper for businesses closing down or moving to a data center like AWS. When my company moved to AWS we just gave away about 20 27u racks for free just to get rid of them. https://sysracks.com/
Docker Containers
Just wondering how many active docker containers you are running in your homelab. I just starting to use Dozzle and realized I have a lot of containers running daily. I currently have 77 running now with more on the way.
