The best/worst example of buyer's remorse I've ever had was saving up all summer to buy a Voodoo 3, having to make a deal with my parents because I still didn't have enough, only to realize entirely too late that by the time I had gotten one it was already outdated.

Honestly you could go all the way back to 2010 or so. Zen, Zen+, and especially Zen 2 are the most exciting things to happen since Sandy Bridge.

Intel fucked up big time, not only did they let moore's law die, but they repeatedly suppresed one of the only companies capable of carrying the torch further

Edit: before anyone event thinks of trying to reply defending intel, I suggest you look into the increasingly common reports of internal hubris being the core cause of many of their failures. They failed to realize this themselves until they tried pitching customers features that competetors had already sold and were shipping!!
