Don't people have to actually buy their consumer CPUs for this to actually mean anything?

I’ve not bought an Intel product in 15 years, and I guess I’ll keep that streak going.
What a novel idea. Blanket increase costs on their NEW garbage hardware that absolutely nobody wants to buy.
Capitalism is the enemy... Intel are clearly just looking to bump their stock price with this news, which probably means they have bad news to give soon.
I bet it will be the classic "We're raising prices because our market share is in decline".
