Its such a weird place to be in life to have bought technology years ago and to have it be more valuable now than it used to be. I don’t think I’d would have bought a steam deck at this pricepoint, whereas I bought two at the lower price point (the LED, then the OLED)
Protip, anything you want, just in general - get it “now”. Especially if you’re in the US, there will never be a better time. We’ve not yet begun to feel the supply chain impacts from Iran. Shit’s fucked, it’s not slowing down, and there’s no wand that can wave to fix it.
I was just looking up strix halo prices because I want another processing machine. The framework platform I was looking at last year is 1200 more expensive (just the base price) than last year.

Yeah I got some storage already. I think I’ll get some more if I see a “discount”
Eh, I didn’t go for the OLED upgrade and I’m still stoked about mine.
I was an OG pre-order and this price point would have been a big fat hell nah from me. Even more true 4+ years later.
