Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead

Micron is shutting down Crucial, its longstanding brand for consumer-focused RAM kits and SSDs, as it shifts its attention to supplying memory for AI companies.

Let's all raise a big middle finger to Micron/Crucial.

The PC market is about to be a disaster.

Gonna start pronouncing the “.” in web addresses as “period” and try to convince boomers they’ve been saying it wrong.

I’ve never seen anything like this. Lenovo put a 4mm DC jack on this laptop’s motherboard, but walled it off on the palmrest and packaged it with a USB-C charger. Why close it off? Why not give people options, especially if you populated the board with the part already?

At least when — not if — the USB-C port breaks, we can just drill a hole in the palmrest and sell the customer a $25 charger rather than sending them for a $150 USB-C port replacement!
