6:00 AM (Denver, Colorado): Here in about 55 minutes I’m going to try to buy one of the NVIDIA RTX 3090 graphics cards when they go on sale. What might be a concerning sign about that is that NVIDIA has already apologized for the online sale that happens in 55 minutes. Apparently, they have a very small supply and things are not going to go well…

7:00 AM (Denver, Colorado): I tried to buy one of these cards using the website this morning. At just after 7:00 AM mountain time it looked like the website changed and then went almost directly to an “OUT OF STOCK” message in all extremely disappointing capital letters.
