Speculating about computer hardware pricing impact
I'm legit really curious what will happen should bleeding-edge memory, GPUs, and hard drives become inaccessible for regular consumers. Speculating, my hunch is:
1. Most consumers will simply not upgrade unless things break
2. Instead of buying new, more people will buy refurbished instead
3. This will open up the market for new vendors selling hardware 5-10yrs behind the bleeding edge
4. We'll start hearing more about performance-per-dollar
