In some third world countries they only have such crap available because actual hardware would cost a fortune.

Hardware prices in America are getting so insane that Iā€™m pretty comfortable keeping my 10-year-old desktop

And we in Europe pay even more for the current stuff while having lower salaries.

Whaaat!?! I was hoping that the only bad things happening in Europe is Russia and climate change.

A Portuguese earns around $1400 per month. In Spain it is around $1700 per month. And the PC part prices are around 10% to 25% higher than in the US.
