I thought it was likely, but I also thought the wording ("for the content of one of those articles") was weird enough that I was confused. I think what was meant was "And I can't wait to pay 5K for the hardware described in one of those articles published 2 years ago."
Also, I would be a lot more confident in labeling it sarcasm if I didn't believe there were plenty of people actually eagerly awaiting new Apple hardware just like that.
