The PC industry is doing what the US auto industry learned around the time of the pandemic, or at least used the pandemic for an excuse. That they can make fewer high margin trucks and SUVs, sell them to the 20 percent who make enough to service the debt on loans, and still make more money than they did selling econoboxes to the masses.
The rest of us are left fighting for used parts and cars to keep our 15 year old shit boxes running to our $25 a hour jobs to pay our $2000 a month rent.
Almost no business can complain. They’re all capitalists and would do the exact same thing.
