      This is a good point, we don’t need PCs to be this expensive.

      I just hope we don’t fuck up the whole thing and end up with cloud computers or end up not making new PCs…

        5 years ago I would’ve called you insane, but with everything happening right now… it’s a distinct possibility.

        RAM’s unaffordable, GPU’s will likely be harder to come by and more expensive. Microsoft is actively driving people away from Windows, Steam is launching their Steam Machine…

        Here’s hoping many gamers will jump to Linux and grow that platform instead. But even then, too expensive hardware will be an issue.

        We’re living in interesting times.
