The future of PCs and Macs looks expensive
- t_fatus 10y agoThat's sad, because I don't see what the equivalent of the smartphone is in this case... VR? I would have love a more powerful 13 inches MBP instead of a very good looking touchbar
- yuhong 10y agoI was wondering what would happen if Intel bought Compaq back in 1991 (when Rod Canion and Jim Harris was still at Compaq) for a while now. Intel has a high profit margin too, and Compaq had higher profit margin back in 1991. Even back in the late 1990s laptops still had a higher profit margin, and laptop theft was more common in these days. Anyone remember the Apple price increases in 1988? Particularly for the Mac II it was worse.

Surface Studio is pretty much a niche, specialist tool (or at least thats what the marketing seems to be aiming for) and macs, are well, macs, overpriced (although the new pricing went from hilarious to just confusing)
