Just got word that our vendor has limited supplies of PC because of a chip shortage. China isn't making anything at the moment. I wonder if other companies are going to look to other countries to create factories where one country doesn't hold all the eggs. Either way, probably expect an increase in CPUs in the short term similar to when RAM prices went up because of the flooding in South Korea.
