    Are these numbers just for the consumer market or is this also for company-owned hardware? I assume it is all in one since the article makes no distinction.

    Asking because of the general sentiment here that all of this is a strategy to get hardware ownership out of hands of the people, but I never understood how any bigger non-tech/hardware-supplying company would play ball with that too.

      I work in IT distribution for small business and numbers are down across the board. Individual servers are up in price 300% in the space of half a year, waiting times are multiple months, etc.
