For a billion dollars, you're not getting anything latest and greatest. And you're definitely not going to get anything in the timeframe of the chip shortage.

I applaud the effort, but feel like it's just going to be people taking advantage of the money for no net benefit.

Even 30-40 years old 2nd hand equipment is completely impossible to find now.

Equipment once sold for scrap, or simply thrown away is now sold for more that it was new.

Why do you think this is relevant?
