A decade and tens of thousands of dollars later, LTT looks way better and much more professional.

When we watch them, we don't really think about what goes into making videos like these, but it's an awful lot. Check it out.

 
I used to frequent TigerDirect when Linus was at NCIX(sorry) for funny commentary that later formed 'the Tek'. It must be difficult to compete in the mainstream at this level.
 
I believe he married into a asian family that owns some tech company and eventually got pushed to the moon.

Congrats to the boney ass nerd.

More money = Better cameras, lights and sound gear + accessories.

Who would have known ?
 
Being successful and having that kind of subscriber count spread out in so many countries isn't easy, but he did it. If he was also able to get strong backers, that's good business sense too.
