To continue to abuse that analogy, Trucks are probably selling better now than 20 years ago because they are "cheap" luxury cars. In this analogy, perhaps the "gamer PC" is the "truck" of the computer age?
Just so you know, trucks (F150, Silverado, RAM) have been consistently selling in the top 5 spots. The only 'car' sell at the top 5 is the Toyota Camry ;)
Yeah, I know. I was hedging with "probably" because I don't have the hard data.
Funny that gamers usually refer to their PC's as a rig. Kind of ties in neatly with the analogy.
The analogy breaks, however, because PCs are considerably harder to operate and maintain than tablets and phones, whereas large SUVs are not significantly harder to drive than a large-ish car.
