gollark: Also, for random real-world background, there are only two companies making (high-performance, actually widely used) CPUs: Intel and AMD, and two making GPUs: AMD and Nvidia. Other stuff (flash storage, mainboards, RAM, whatever else) is made by many more manufacturers. Alienware and whatnot basically just buy parts from them, possibly design their own cases (and mainboards for laptops, to some extent), and add margin.
gollark: You could just have them require really powerful nonquantum computers.
gollark: Quantum computing accelerates specific workloads, not just *everything*.
gollark: I suppose the future might have a lot of vertical integration going on.
gollark: Not really. They package existing components into computers.
