What this means for your business
If you're planning to buy new laptops, desktops or servers over the next few years, don't expect prices to fall the way they did after previous chip gluts. It's worth buying what you need sooner rather than waiting for a better deal that probably isn't coming. If you're refreshing hardware on a budget, talk to us about phasing purchases carefully rather than deferring them indefinitely.
