Reply to Worldwide PC Shipments Decline Another 15.0% in the Third Quarter of 2022, According to IDC Tracker by Ill-Poet-3298

Driving force are ganers for PC, and with nvidia releasing overpriced garbage room heating gpus, AMD releasing new cpus which require a complete new machine instead of a cpu upgrade inly, plus economical problems and less money to waist for gadgets, this is a normal outcome. Add playstations ar Steam deck to the game, and less ppl buy a new PC. Fir homeoffice, any cheap and old PC does the job.

I also still use a 1060 gtx because I refuse to a new gpu north of 1k euros drawing 400w alone or pay higher than MRSP prices for 2y old graphic cards.

>Still don't get the point of 5G.

You've not tried 5G UC then. I got over 800 mbps down with line of site to a cell tower in a very rural area. My grandparents were getting 10 mbps from the local WISP , I got them on T-Mobile home internet and now they reliably get 400+ mbps, usually close to 800 mbps for $50 a month.

5G, when its actual 5G (like Ultra Capacity or mmWave) and not that fake rebranded LTE "5G" is actually hugely faster.
