Micron is shutting down Crucial, and apparently, they’re calling it a move to *help* consumers. Talk about a plot twist that could rival any soap opera!
In a recent gut-wrencher of an interview, Micron’s VP of marketing, Christopher Moore, reassured us all that they’re still looking out for the little guy. ‘We’re just doing it through different channels,’ he says, like a tech-savvy Santa Claus who’s redirected his sleigh to only deliver to manufacturers like Dell and Asus.
So, instead of sending RAM directly to your home, they’re supplying it to your favorite gadget creators. Just think of it as an avant-garde art piece—less DIY, more curated experience. Because who needs control over their memory upgrades, right?
Micron insists that they still have a ‘sizable business’ servicing consumer markets, which is like saying you still have a friendship with your high school buddy even if you never see each other. Sure, you might still wave if you pass each other in the street, but is that the same as hanging out?
Is this really for the betterment of consumers, or is it just a classic case of ‘we know what’s best for you’? It begs the question: does shutting down a brand to streamline operations and boost profits justify the sacrifice?
This saga is far from over, and depending on your loyalty to Crucial, you might want to buckle in. Let’s hope Micron’s direction pans out like a blockbuster sequel rather than a poorly timed spin-off! What do you think—is this shutdown a savvy strategy or corporate gobbledygook?
