Why do PC’s become so damn worthless after 2 years
Written by Arnan on July 15, 2009 – 8:43 pmI have this old but perfectly fine PC here.
It’s almost 3 years since i bought it and i have used it well… And now, its on some ebay-ish site. I cannot even set a price because no-one wants it. So i just stated “every reasonable offer”. Which turns out is 50 euros. All together this whole rig cost me more like 600-700 euros 3 years ago.
And yes, i know the specs are rubbish… Its only a mere AMD Athlon64 3500 with a lousy 320GB Sata drive and an ATI X1650. But still, compare it to a mac’s value of 3 years ago. It’s unfair!
Earlier this year i bought a Mac Mini 1.42Ghz G4 and those still are worth over 200 euros.
