And no amount of performance improvements is going to change the minds of those people. Either they’ll finally try electric and realize how great they are or eventually die out. Either way ICE is going to be the oddity one day.

Yeah but I’m not even talking budget gear from this generation. Heck used 3080s go for as low as 350 on eBay and those are still great and those will let you play 1440p on high, far from the minimum you need to play these days.
Admittedly I have no idea of the price for used laptops or full systems.


Tell me you didn’t read my post without replying without…you know. Where did I mention new anywhere? Yes, bubbles ruin the price on the latest and greatest. We’ve been dealing with it since crypto. However, we don’t NEED the latest and greatest anymore and haven’t for years.
Despite the bubble, this is still a better time when it comes to ability to play awesome games for cheap than ever before.


Bah these articles are trash. I’ve got a 5 year old PC ands still playing games on high. For console, Switch games and even DS are still great portable and multiplayer options.
Gaming is cheaper than ever because we’ve got a massive backlog of great games that you’d never catch up on even if you did nothing but game all day. Plus stuff more than a few years old gets CHEAP!
I wouldn’t mind upgrading, but even if something dies I can buy a used replacement and keep going until this bubble pops.


Because the US had a clear lead in the ability to deliver nuclear weapons at the time and Russia knew it. Easy to act tough when you have the advantage, but idiotic when it’s only going to hurt you.


It depends on the region. For almost the entire country, no unless you’re in sales or an executive. However, the Northeast is still pretty suit heavy for office jobs and I was asked to at least wear a suit jacket when visiting the office as a software guy.
Moderately useful for basic tasks you’re going to review. Extremely useful for puff stuff like marketing where you don’t care about little mistakes. Those generic corporate emails? Done. Random picture of dude with your product? Easy.
Where it’s never going to be worth it is places you have to be 100% right. Finance is a big one. So of course they’re trying to shove it in that stuff too.
