Alza sells Eternico mouses/keyboards. It's their in house brand. It's kind of Czech/European made, but in reality it "Made in China" on the bottom.

I'm curious about this as well, but I really doubt that any electornics, like mouses/keyboards are really made in Europe. At least designed in Europe doesn't count for me as European made.

    It's not just computers. Everything that has some memory or RAM will be more expensive. TVs, phones, /tablets, home appliances. Of course some people will get a latest of everything, but a lot of people will realize that they actually don't need a new model every other year. It will not be just buying because why not, but only out of necessity and most likely second hand.

    I'm on 25 years and F1 is rock bottom for me. First hit was '21 when they went motor racing. Up until that point I think I have missed maybe 1 or 2 GPs from past 20 years. I barely watched '22, then it got better last year, so nice to see McLaren get their titles. Until Australia this year.

    It felt random, they go bananas for a few couple of laps, then things settle and that's that. Spa was probably second GP I watched live this year. Things are now even worse as they hiding speed and battery.

    Just rumbling as well, we get older, hobbies change. Maybe that's how folks that watched in 80s saw 00-10' F1. Also F1 used to be somewhat rare in the past, now with 20+ races.. From Spa you had like 3-5 race to go and now it's half point.

    Something positive: 2020 was for me probably most enjoyable season because we got to see F1 on tracks we usually don't and probably won't ever again. Also I'm really enjoying WEC and Formula E seems to be picking up some nice tracks next year.
