I wonder if they’re going to subsidize it with the RAM price hikes to prevent it from dying on the vine. It’s a great idea and looks to be a good bit of kit, but it’s timing couldn’t have been worse.
There’s no possible way they could do this since it’s not bootloader locked. If they did, sure they’ll sell a ton, but it would be used for all sorts of random junk instead of the steam store which wouldn’t generate them any profit and additionally would likely frustrate gamers due to extremely limited stock. We’ll all just need to swallow larger electronics prices until new fabs come online or the ai bubble pops.
