With DDR5 RAM prices skyrocketing, some mid-range laptops could soon ship with budget-level specs. TrendForce expects companies like Dell and Lenovo to stock more notebooks with 8GB of memory. These reasonably priced options may no longer handle intense office and gaming tasks.

      You don’t need to load the mouse driver on your laptop. We have a subscription service for it!

        Cool! Is the scroll wheel split into up and down services?

          5 cents per scroll. Because pennies are over.

            Seems reasonable. Can I buy left and right click separately as monthly subscriptions?

            Boy was I wrong about modern computing, it’s all so powerful and useful!

      We’ll trim it down so the mouse driver only has a little AI.
