[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 847678, member: 48483"] RAM and storage drives are pre-ordered for and have the factories running at capacity to fulfill the AI data centers being built. This will affect our ability to buy digital electronics for months/years to come. The PC I bought is a refurb. Read that as lease return that has been wiped and reloaded with Windows 11. I hope that the BIOS is not password-protected like the last time I bought a laptop as a refurb. But I got the loaded model with 32GB of RAM and 2TB SSD. But at $580 that is approaching what I paid for the ASUS I am replacing back in April 2011. That was also a renewed unit and used older hardware. And this newer computer is the Lenovo tiny PC form factor with no optical drive. Basically a laptop with more I/O ports and no display attached. [/QUOTE]
