@whitequark@social.treehouse.systems heard from some folks that it's getting pretty common to see laptops without RAM cause the RAM costs more than the rest of the laptop.

@elexia@catcatnya.com @whitequark@social.treehouse.systems my thought is to buy up all these RAM and SSD less laptops and wait for the crash. Then buy cheap missing parts :)

@elexia@catcatnya.com @whitequark@social.treehouse.systems There are repair shops whose whole business model used to be buying old/broken computers on ebay, repairing them and reselling them for a reasonable price. They basically can't do that anymore because everything on the market is now either stripped clean or way too expensive.
