Anyway, the launch price of the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X is $999.99, so you don't know what you're talking about. Also, the launch price of it has nothing to do with my comment. You seems confused and hostile for no reason.

(The increase of over $100, now common practice, occurred within a few months.) Also, it should be noted that the Z2E version I purchased (Europe) did not have an Asus power supply. (This forced me, despite everything, to purchase a specific charger compatible with the specific 21V/65W battery, since most "compatible chargers" I'm from 20V)

                Two: The discussion was mainly about the way and method of functioning of today's industrial mentality, considering the delicate and serious events that are taking place; - prices are rising, buyer spending is decreasing. (And in reality, you didn't understand anything about that discussion.)

                Three: You were repeatedly told how little you know about facts and events.

                And Four: the increase at Microsoft, has a strange coincidence with the presentation and pre-order of a strange video game. The curious thing (which you obviously don't know) is that the Xbox X series is also difficult to buy, since it is not present in "classic" shops. Maybe between now and November, it will "magically" reappear to the delight of those like you, who want to forage for this kind of reality.

                Critical exchange is welcome. Ignorance and arrogance are not welcome.

                  It is not Microsoft's fault. As per Micron, it is implied that its the fault of Apple as the deliberately kept asking for lower prices which eroded the profit margin of memory companiea and they were not able to invest in new plants to improve capacity.

                                You asked 3 times what is the meaning of my post (which I have explained twice).
                                And when I was nice enough to save you from your embarrassment, you suddenly understood what I meant, you still want to look for something when there is nothing there, and throw away other people's kindness just so you can be superior over inferior.

                                Besides you said it yourself, and I quote:
                                "It's GSMArena. It's not strange that some users don't understand the obvious. You have to spell it out for them."

                                I'll be nice and end it here. I don't like to make other people look bad further. I don't like to play childish games. I am getting old and not getting any younger to play childish (superiority over inferiority) games.

                                Also, you want to have the last words, have at it hoss.

                                I'll just be nice end it here. Cheers.
