I
agree in the main, although when keeping up with CPUJones, so
to
speak, the cost of the new PC stays relatively constant.
In the
West, we are used to the idea that we can replace a
PC
every two years. I have to wonder if all the same scales
still
apply elsewhere. PCs have a way of obsoleting code,
so the
formula for success can't rely completely on free or
open
source code, although that is a real help. One needs
to
identify all of the recurrent costs. I think the scale for
"relatively cheap" may vary a lot across different
economies.
