Why would anyone sell a handful of GPUs to nobodies like us when they could sell a million GPUs for thousands apiece to a handful of big companies? We're speedrunning the absolute worst corpo cyberpunk timeline.

Because when you lose even one of those big companies in your handful, it tanks your business. Customer diversity is a good thing.

And they're not selling a handful of GPUs to nobodies like us; they're selling millions of GPUs to millions of nobodies.

Gaming is now less than 10% of nvidia's revenue. We're really not adding any meaningful diversity to their bottom line anymore.

Tell that to Micron.
