    Holy shit, really? Crucial? They’ve been a major player for AGES. That’s wild.

      I mean, Crucial is just the name that Micron puts on the memory they want to sell to consumers. So this story is basically just, “Micron no longer wants to sell to consumers”.

        When the shit hits the fan and they come back to consumers, we should just buy from anyone but them, on principle alone.
