They don't need to drop prices though - they sell plenty of them at the current prices.

Also, all consumer electronics are going up in price due to the component (RAM, GPU, SSD) shortages, which are happening because the majority of new stock is being sold to AI companies.

  • They don't need to drop the price there are plenty of sales available

  • Everything is going up in price because of AI anyway

So which one is it?

You read that wrong. They didn’t say there are sales, as in discounts, available. They said they’re getting sales, ie selling every unit they produce, even with the price increase.

That's probably my fault for not wording it well. I edited my comment to say "they sell plenty of them" instead.

Yes, I'm aware of that. It's kinda hard to avoid knowing that.
