This monitor has been $999 since it was first released back in July 2011. Steve Jobs was literally still alive at that time.

When is Apple going to finally give this thing a price drop for crying out loud?
>>
>>54703020
>implying they do price drops on luxury products
>>
>>54703020
never, retards kept buying it at the price they introduced. Why would they lower it?
>>
>>54703020
Yea they don't do price drops. They know people will still buy it for $1k.
>>
>>54703020

Gotta wait until WWDC. The replacement will really be released this time.
>>
>>54703020
Stand-alone monitor is deprecated.

Apple will kill the product once the inventory completely runs out, and the few cucks who actually buy Mac Pro will be invited to buy special chrome plated versions of Eizo monitors at 3 times the regular price.

This Dell 4K monitor is less than half the price of that Apple monitor. You can literally get two of these and not pay as much as that Apple monitor.

There's a reason why apple is notorious for, "Don't fuck up your shit or you're paying 90% of the full price of your product again."

They're built to break.

No, one's made of metal, the other's chink plastic.

One comes with a mature stable Unix desktop OS, the other recommends Windows 10.

The macbook is 100% plastic. The x200 at least has a roll cage and doesn't require a complete disassembly to access trivial components. Also, osx updates aren't supported on the 2006 macbook, so enjoy being exploited with 0 days by 12 year old script kiddies.
>>
>>54708058
>isn't botnet
It's not, it has iCloud but you can turn all that shit off.

Linux has the systemd botnet now (feeds Google your DNS requests) and Windows has 'telemetry' which just takes a picture of you every 30 seconds, records all audio, and logs all keystrokes for later analysis by MS.

What's funny though, is the poo in loos who can't afford any Apple gear, and who think $300 is a lot of money.

No they are not, they just don't use thunderbolt in the consumer models which is why the macbook only had USB type-c.

Thunderbolt 3 is the future for most people and the fact other companies have finally adopted it means the price of it will drop.

Alright /g/, 2 years ago I ended my relationship with my ex and literally became a isolated NEET, shitposting on /g/ all day and night, barely getting passing grades on university, didn't even kiss any girl all that years.
A year ago I made the best decision in my life, and bought a 15 inch Retina MacBook Pro®. That's when my life started changing.
With the Mac I really got into iOS development, it's really fun and easy, I started learning Swift and it's simply great, everything just works, and my self-steem started increasing exponentially.

One day, I was at StarBucks developing an iOS App, and a qt girl talked to me. She asked "are you gay"? I said "no". Then we kissed.
The next week I met with her at the mall and we watched Mowgli, it was really fun, I kissed her at the end.
Then she said she's studying to enter a CS university, her dream is to become a game developer. That moment I realized I finally found the woman of my life, she's my 3D waifu, and she's the girl I want to pregnate.

All of that thanks to Apple's great piece of engendering, the MacBook® really changed my life. Thanks Apple!
