As someone who is constantly being interrupted lately these days on job from designing new product to track down "weird" problems caused by faulty electronic components on shit we're trying to ship... I have to agree. Holding off on buying anything myself until at least 4th quarter of 2023, but that could be pushed back depending on what unfolds in the near future. The techs normally like to just scrap boards and replace, but given that we've had to pay up to $80 per chip that normally would have cost $5, I've been having to troubleshoot and fix every single one.
