In the news this week, we talk about the NVIDIA RTX Spark announcement, mostly focused on its insanely expensive laptops for "AI" use cases (or is that Super Intelligence?). We also cover rising CPU prices and hardware prices, SoftBank wanting another $100 billion for its AI buildout and data centers, GTA VI coming to PC sooner than expected, and the PlayStation 5 hack to support PS2 discs natively.

CORRECTIONS:
24:27 - In an off-hand comment, we incorrectly stated that "both" the 5090 and PRO 6000 use 3GB memory modules. Of the two, only the PRO 6000 does. We have removed the erroneous comment with the trim tool and are leaving this as a transparent record of the change.
