    It feels like the bottom felt out of the market and now if you want a computer that works as expected you need to get these ultra high end luxury RGB brainrot products.

    Anytime I try to buy something in the mid range now it basically comes broken or falls apart in the first month of ownership.

    You may as well buy Chinese ewaste from Ali express at that point.

      Only if you’re buying brand new bleeding edge. They always launch the expensive stuff first, it’s the early adopter tax. Then after initial demand is sated, they’ll release the mid tier and entry level products for the price conscious buyers.
