Makes it better for them because lower cost+higher earnings due to price markup
Jaxson Fisher
no, why do i have to pay more for worse functionality?
Nicholas Robinson

Ian Thompson
yall can always use and external thunderbolt 3 adapter and hook up as many drives as you want.
Ian Brooks
no, why do i have to pay more to get an inferior product? please answer this question instead of for some reason writing a different question in a green font
Eli Bailey
It's called the Apple Tax. Does less. Costs more. It's that simple.
>being this much of a retarded itoddler
Hey iRetard, do you really think that these components are mounted by hand by someone just for your faggoty ass? A robot in a factory places the flash storage on the motherboard and heat guns it for a few seconds and then pushes it down the line. There's no manual labor involved. It's all automated.

>why do i have to pay more to get an inferior product?
who is this evil person who is forcing you to buy Apple products? the way free market works is that you part with your money when you feel a product or service is worth it, and obviously you don't consider this product worth your money, so what the fuck are you complaining actually?

Luis Harris
>macs are hand made
No they aren't. This is the most moronic, tech illiterate shit I've read all day. The last computers that were hand made were fucking punchcard machines and range table calculators.
Fuck off to /lgbt/, fruitfag. You obviously know nothing about technology.
Jaxson Allen
You thought you were really smart making this post didn't you?
Matthew Diaz
>some pieces are assembled by hand
>this means it's handmade
That's real fucking stretch if I've ever seen one. Your original argument is that 256GB of flash storage is $200 because Macshit is handmade. None of these components are surface mounted by hand. Not now, not ever, not by any company anywhere.
You thought you were really smart taking that long to find chinks assembling plastic pieces, didn't you?
Juan Bell
It was literally googling, "computer factory," nor am I the guy you were replying to and the computer is assembled by hand.

What is this Apple / Indian pajeet meme? I've been away from Jow Forums for a while
Noah Reyes

He's literally a Pajeet from India, shilling and defending Apple trash all day. He made the mistake one time of phoneposting one time and revealed he's on Vodaphone India.

Lucas Miller
Do you really think they tear the SSDs from the finished boards? They just build them with the bigger SSDs. The only increased cost is the additional cost of the bigger drives, that are by far smaller than the price hike.
Mason Gomez
Robert Williams
You know that drive has shit speeds and is no better than a SATA drive.

Imagine having to buy an external gpu/case on a computer advertised for its small form factor
>more than enough i/o ports
It's not even enough to plug in a USB flash drive, mouse and keyboard without plugging in a USB hub.
>assumptions
Nigger there are numerous articles about macbooks throttling. Its safe to assume that Apple didn't hire those pajeet engineers.

Let's just ignore the fact that one of these products are damn near twice the width of the other and one doesn't even come with storage/ram. Don't let a retardation get in the way of a good meme.
Nathan Gonzalez
Let's just ignore the fact that the Macshit will have 10% the performance of any PC with identical specs. Don't let retardation get in the way of your street shitting.

Wait until black friday rgbtard, $800+ is a pretty steep price for a glowing skull.

Thats a cheap nvme at ssd speeds. Apples storage as much as a rip off as it is, at least is screaming fast.

Here's a Samsung one. It's $88. Just stop posting while you're ahead, iTard.
Isaiah Barnes
To be fair, Apple's PCI SSDs are some of the fastest on the market and others with similar performance cost about the same.
However, if they actually listened to their consumers, they would offer normal speed SSDs at normal prices since most people don't need 3000MB/s read speeds.

Anthony Allen
Ouch. I still dont regret buying a macbook pro its still the best ultrabook. There is just no denying you are getting ripped off for parts
Grayson Hughes
So many mac threads, you faggots really are obsessed. Just buy one already.
Jack Ortiz
Is it true you have to put in the freezer when doing cpu intensive tasks? Having to do that always steered me away from macbooks.
Mason Lopez
We already have, that's why we're griping. We were expecting a somewhat decent product and instead got a piece of shit throttling locked down fruity toddler toy.
Nathaniel Sanchez
>he thinks USB3 and Thunderbolt 3 are comparable

I bought the base model 2017 without touchbar that has a 2c4t kaby lake i5. It doesnt get hot unless i run cinebench. The problem happened when they started dropping """28w""" 4c8t and 6c12t housefire cpus in the same case that has no cooling but one little fan.
Lucas Davis
> Buying a prearmed PC should cost the same as buying the parts separately
Alexander Russell
I'd rather have more usb ports for i/o devices, how the FUCK is a keyboard/mouse/printer going to max out 10Gbps? Also yeah 10Gbps ethernet is faster but I'd rather have 2 ports (one for NAS and one for internet connection).
Eli Baker
ssd is soldered
Lucas Martinez
>parts should cost over $100 more just because they were screwed into the computer
Sebastian Gutierrez
nobody said that but the mactrash mini is severely overpriced when compared to some a smaller more compact dumb gaymern nuc, see
William Hill
I have a desktop i dont care about multicore benchmarks. I care about the best track pad, best speakers, best display, best form factor and weight, and best os. Im not trying to use an ultrabook as a work station
Tyler Morris
>when your OS is so good you can charge people 2x as much, and they still buy it
SIGH
Liam Morales
>I care about the best track pad, best speakers, best display, best form factor and weight, and best os.
Then why the fuck would you get macshit? They have NONE of those things.
Zachary Hernandez

Jackson Anderson
I forgot best batterylife too. But if you want a workstation laptop then yeah buy a fatter laptop with heat pipes and shit
Noah Jones
>isoddered
Benjamin Martinez
They need an entirely new production line because the drives are soldered, they need a different supply chain, they have to offer a different warranty on it, just too many variables for a brainlet like you who thinks hur durr it cost 60 dolar
If you're too poor to buy even the cheapest mac model maybe you need to look elsewhere.
Have you checked out Xiaomi chinkbooks? they might be more within your budget
Luke Miller
>mac os
>good
Why does everyone keep spamming this meme?
William Cooper
Can I stack some Mac Minis on top of each other and make a Mac Mega?
Cameron Jackson
>t. never used any ultrabook or a macbook pro b4 but have important opinions about it
Name one ultrabook with better battery life, better track pad, and better speakers. I will wait
Jason Carter
>apple upcharge
woah this has literally never happened before i can't believe apple would do something like this
Easton Hill
It's just one autistic street shitter.
Jason Adams
>implying any other laptop trackpad is as good as apple's
even if you hate apple you are fucking delusional or pretending that you have used them if you think macbooks don't have the best trackpads
Jacob Diaz
Anything not macshit mactrash.
Eli Smith
now try run docker :^) or actually use it for development purposes properly.
It just works + looks good by default + has software while being unix, apple ecosystem like airdrop etc. If you think macOS is bad you're crazy
Henry Bell
Name a better os. Specify the desktop environment. Linux or debian is not an answer
Carter Jones
yes
Owen Edwards
>flushing money down the toilet while you get an inferior products makes you "rich"
I make close to a quarter of a million dollars a year. I ordered a maxed out Talos II and a Galaxy S9. I have enough money that I don't feel the need to signal with fruity fashion accessories. I could buy you and your entire family 10x over, Poojeet.
Brandon Brown
Like? Dell Xps 13 is shit so name something
Easton Jones
Nah, it's just a different pick and place program, and a different set of tape reels. But they do need to wait until done with the regular SKUs, or run them on a different production line that's set aside just for smaller runs.
>not a mega-mini
Jackson Baker
>What did Apple mean by this?
Just milking the fanboys like Blizzard/EA/Ubisoft and many other tech/software/gaming companies.
