Also, someone who lives in a country that is not loved by Apple.
Here in central Europe, a Mac Mini goes for 1200$ without a monitor, and that's in the cheapest online store (where you will have to wait for over a week for it, as they do not have them in stock).
Also, since there are no Apple stores, repairs and warranty in general is a pain to deal with.
Considering these circumstances, a "Mac in a cloud" seems appealing, especially if you need it just as a testbed.
