while It is a little weaker than the competition and at a higher price, It's a piece o tech that will last far longer

have to say I have had the same concern. it could happen, any business can fold. I just bought a new AMD 13 anyway. I've decided that the right to repair (and, lol, option to repair, even) is far more important than maximizing my dollar to fps ratio and I'm happy to add my contribution to the cause
