Palmer Luckey's All-American Computer Poll: A Bold Venture?
Palmer Luckey's proposition for a Made in America computer raises intriguing questions about consumer priorities. With a 20% premium over Chinese counterparts, it's ambitious yet potentially optimistic. "Who is going to make an American computer again?" he asks, highlighting a significant gap in manufacturing capabilities. The FTC's criteria for 'Made in USA' products present a daunting challenge given current supply chains. - Luckey's history with Oculus shows he can innovate, but can he navigate these complexities? - A poll shows 63.5% in favor, suggesting interest but not commitment. Ultimately, while there’s potential, the execution remains in question. A successful launch could redefine American tech, but it’s a steep hill to climb. Will consumers prioritize patriotism over price? Only time, and perhaps a few more polls, will tell.
