Right

And other industries such as PC and phone.


The new Galaxy S22 due out in a couple of weeks is supposedly already in short supply.

The phones are the least of my worries. Not sure why everyone has to have the newest phone. I'm still on my 1st smart phone from just over 3 years ago:)

I think GM is blowing smoke up the stock holders ass😁. Come on things will be back to normal😳. Uh huh yeh good luck on that one. Ford just announced another shut down due to no chips. Anyone see all the pictures of 2021 cars and trucks sitting in fields?

Because my S9 is starting to not charge correctly because it's old.

And the battery is not replaceable.

And I've maxed out the memory on it and it's full...

Time for a new phone....

Hmmm, GM & Ford dealers lots around here are still looking real thin.
Was in Tarpon Springs earlier in the week & the mega dealer lots there were also pretty empty !

That’s nothing to do with chips. That’s them hoping people will want it now and not wait for an order.

There are some & dealers are hoping for a desperate 'gotta have it now' buyer.

Saw a base STX Challenger a while back with a $10K bump sticker in addition to their 'regular' $2.5k bump for useless wax, fabric protection etc. + $899 dealer fee + $250 tag fee (over the fee actually charged by the state).

Just insane IMO, but apparently stupid ppl are ponying up :rolleyes: Of course, 2, 3, 4 years down the line they will want to trade and be soooooooooo underwater !

The best part of that whole article is that they finally, FOR ONCE, point out that the chips that are in short supply are the cheapo $1 chips used for very basic functions. When I was with Compaq / HP years ago we built those (and the higher ends) right here in the country. What the hell do we think will happen if we have to go to war with China? We're making sure they've got us by the balls.

As for cars coming back and prices dropping... can't wait.
