    Say you have the tooling to make X number of processors to split between Product A and Product B. Yeah, A got you started, but now it’s 10% (or less!) of your total profit. It’s a no-brainer to put that manufacturing soley into B.

    Combine that with the fact that PC builders are an ever shrinking market. Hell, even having a PC is becoming rare. I’ve never bought a factory PC in my life, but I’m on a NUC I got from my last company and may just ride with those for the foreseeable future. Nothing to do with RAM prices! I simply don’t have a need for a monster, power sucking unit when a 4" x 2" box does it all.
