Enough video cards and monitors and anyone can do that.

Eve servers by far, have yet to see anywhere else that can run a single-server MMO as well as CCP.

I mine so you can have the fuel to run your POS.

With todays technology, synchronizing any electronic equipment is fairly easy, especially if you had ample time in testing it in advance before the big reveal.

EvE servers on the other hand push current technologies, by requiring to be able to run 2000/4000 people & their ships figthing on the fly, on a single node, sometimes without prior announcement.
That's what I call impressive.
