The companies charging $200/month for AI assumed local hardware would never catch up.

It caught up.

He's assembling the proof right now.

A PC that runs Qwen 3.6 27B a free model that beats Claude on vision by 7 points. DeepSeek R1 for math and reasoning. Llama 3.3 70B for everything else. All local. All free. All forever.

Electricity: $9/month. Subscriptions: $0.

He used to pay $459/month for Claude Code, ChatGPT Pro, and Cursor. That's $5,500 a year going to someone else's servers.

The hardware he's building costs less than one year of that bill.

And it never sends another invoice.

He's still assembling it.

The subscription renewal reminder hit his inbox while he was putting it together.

He ignored it.
