This. People really underestimate or straight up ignore resale value of Apple products. Just because you can upgrade a Framework laptop it doesn't make it a better value over the long term.

Can't believe the cost of the trash can mac pros. I always wanted one and put it on my long term to-do list, but they're still $500+. Even if they can be had for less, I won't buy one because my tolerance for tinkering has since dwindled. But it's quite a testament that they are still that expensive.

  • They’re a collectors item. And they look cool, not like some of the PPC beige boxes. There’s never been anything else on the market like it.

    I doubt it will ever drop. At least not for a long long time.

  • I mean, you have always wanted one. Can you say the same thing about any other PC?

    You understand the demand for them. It’s you.

    • Correct, the demand is effectively zero because the people that want them absolutely won't buy them.
