Demand Is Booming for New No Tech, Repairable Tractor

>they went out and bought machinery from 1987 so that it wouldn’t have a computer on it

That's fine and all but Deere still carries parts for that 1987 tractor, so you can keep it running. Ursa will probably be gone in 10 years?; it doesn't matter how mechanical the system is if you can't get new parts anyways.

John Deere’s repair monopoly

I's not the technology itself that they object to --- it's the fact that it is being used (patents, DMCA, etc.) to rape them on repairs.
