Let me start off by saying that we should have made a "5309" reference, a miss on our part.AMD has a very good financial report, let the Josh take wash over you.Steam controller launches, sells out, and you probably don't have one.32GB was the minimum.  Then it wasn't.  Microsoft, so trustworthy.Also plain text never hurt anyway.And so much more!Thanks to our sponsor this week: Zapier!Bring the power an AI to any workflow - don’t just talk about it:  ACT!
