Yeah I went shopping for a new computer a couple of years ago (to replace a 7 year old computer) and... the specs for what was for sale were the same as what I bought 7 years prior, and the price wasn't much lower.
I would much rather buy a 2026 computer than a 2019 computer. Two generations of Nvidia GPUs, Apple M series chips, the X3D AMD chips, and pcie5 ssds are all major upgrades.
It’s just that the pace of new stuff is slowing down, and many people are operating under the assumption that this wave will ride on forever.
