That seems to be the fault of the transcription, i.e. by whoever sat and read through the scroll text in order to enter it as a forum comment.

The scroll itself in the intro is in all-caps, i.e. all the text is shown as caps.

Also, I really think context makes it fantastically clear here that it's talking about aspects of computer hardware.

The author had two choices -- fix the problem at the source, or downvote the well-intentioned correcting post. I see which he chose.
