Are you all ready for subscription based PCs? Because they are going to make sure that's the only way you can afford decent hardware.
Or it'll be like buying a used car, 36 monthly payments and your PC will finally be yours!
I think we're already there.
More like you'll access better hardware over the web with a subscription fee.
I can hook you up right now with a solid Dell Optiplex 9010, your choice Windows or Linux, just $15.99 a month lease. If anything goes wrong with the hardware, we'll send you a new one and you just ship the old one back.

And NVidia are ramping up their subsciption prices already...
