Now is the only time you can charge premium for new chips. Nobody will pay that in a year or two. In five years it's on Craigslist, and in ten, it's ancient crap you find on motherboards pulled from machines thrown into the dumpster.

Hey, my 2003 iMac still works as a great dns resolver.

Of course so does a $5 raspberry pi.

There's also the huge difference in power consumption.
