Because it's presumably still profitable for them. A very small subset of users with very deep pockets finds value in those higher-tiered products and pays for them anyways. They don't care that adoption isn't high because it stops being a selling point once they have "something better" to replace it.

- nine_k 3y agoThis sort of worked with AVX-512. Sadly, it did not work with Optane. It could completely revolutionize the way e.g. mobile devices work, creating a huge market, if it were incessantly pushed to gain mindshare, instead of being scarcely available in pricey high-end SSDs. A similar thing, sadly, happened to Plan 9.
- packetlost 3y agoSure, but Plan 9 was never going to work. It didn't take security seriously until it's last release and even then only barely. Plan 9's ideas live on in Golang and some parts of it made their way into Linux. Optane is just Intel's hubris at work. Also the fact that AMD finally started spanking them in the CPU market.
