> I don't doubt the hardware is top-notch again, but an 8-core machine (I get it's Xeon), with a 256GB SSD and 32GB of RAM with a nice graphics card for $6000 is ludicrous. I tried pricing out a Dell workstation with comparable features (though still not as fast in any spec), and it came to just under $8000. > Have we truly moved into $1/ pixel territory? 6K means 6000 pixels wide, not total. It's roughly $1 per column of 3384 pixels. For high end displays, that price is nothing new. In 2004, the Apple Cinema Display was 2560x1600 at $3299 (accounting for inflation: $4463 in 2019 dollars), or $1.29 (2019: $1.74) per column of 1600 pixels. Over the 6 years that Apple sold it, the price dropped from $3299 to $1799.
