I’ve been hearing that since I was a kid.
When the newest fastest most powerful computer comes out it’s more than enough to handle everything.
Then people make cool things that use up all the latest power and speed…and then demand just a little bit more.
If you want to do the exact same things forever that you’re doing today, you probably have the last computer you’ll ever need.
If you want to make new things in a new way, you’ll be buying new computers forever.
