Some of us are not happy using 5 year old computers. Especially gamers. I have to buy new $700 video cards every 1 1/2 years at best to keep up with the newer games being developed today as an example and then newer chipsets every 2-3 years at best.

And who pays that much for a phone? Every time a newer version iPhone comes out, I trade mine in and the new costs @$150-200.
