There's always a market for a sub $50 CPU. Office PC, Grandma's HTPC, a starter computer for your kid, etc.

No shit, I am running a Win NT machine just for excel. Until this thing dies, I have no reason to replace it whatsoever. Too bad CRT went kaput years ago.

Too bad they're so expensive in Australia, A$159 here.

It's only A$189 for a 5600G, I'd be all over one of these for AUD$79 (or less!).

Appliance hardware, kiosks, industrial computers, etc. Equipment we buy at work, a lot of times it comes with older processors.

Yep, that too! There is an enormous amount of lower end hardware used in such kinds of equipment.

I built a PC for my wife's beauty salon with the remains of my old PCs. i7 980 CPU, Asus Sabertooth X58 MB, 16GB kingston DDR3 1666Mhz, Kingston 500GB SSD, AMD HD7870... I could have used a RX 570 8Gb but for what she uses it, it would be a waste.
