We're going from semiconductor shortage to assembly shortage. The real shortage is energy, and that is why the US HAS the strangle the dollar liquidity. FIAT money is only worth something if it's backed by scarcity and violence. It's downhill from here for eternity, I suspect you wont be able to buy anything off the shelf in a couple of months/years. Which is why you should buy last generations quality hardware now at peak architecture/lithography (14nm Atom, 14nm Xeon 4-core (larger has memory contention and is too power hungry), 28nm Raspberry 4). This generation and the next is/will be less open/repairable and have higher max TDP which is a problem with unreliable power.
