Sighting - Prada Cup 2021 Coverage

Hi,

just saw htop in the coverage of the 2021 Prada Cup Coverage (America's Cup Qualifier, Sailing).

Here's a link https://youtu.be/zwfu1-24T7Q at 51:45 seconds.

Thought I'd let you know for your "Signings" page.

Cheers,

Hi Alexander,

thank you very much for spotting htop in the wild!

I did intentionally not mention Prada as I personally find this "tag a random brand name on an unrelated event for cash" a bit appalling.
So I worked around that.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

you're most welcome!

In fact, I've seen htop being up a couple of times now in these broadcasts. It' now used in their opener, too. But it's not just for show, actually. Check out this clip: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_pKWF-YvEPY at 1:36 where they cut in the canned shot I've already pointed out, but a couple seconds later you do see more of a working setup, and I think on the right-hand guy's monitor there's htop running next to his YachtBow window, and the colorful knobs below the screen that are also shown in the close-ups. In the following shots htop is the star again, and then it's up another time in the bokeh behind he interviewee. 

I'd bet that they'll also use it in the America's Cup footage, and since I'll watch every bit of it, I'll be happy keep scouting. ;)

Thanks a million for making htop, it's really a gem, and your work on it is much appreciated!

Cheers,
Alexander

Hi Alexander,

thanks again! I amended https://htop.dev/sightings.html with a link to the new video. I guess the challenger series is covered now unless they do a full feature on how htop helps them monitor their infrastructure.
May be somebody should nudge Brent Russell :-).

Enjoy watching the racing!
