Not sure when it happened but there used to be a time when computer companies would continue to release new versions as faster products for the same price of the previous year (or cheaper!). Now it seems like they (Apple, Nvidia, etc) release new stuff at a slightly higher price and continue to sell the older stuff in tandem( and only sometimes at a lower price).
It is my hope that Apple doesn't continue selling the older (current) MacMini at a slight discount and then sell the new M4 at a slight increase.
Just. Sell. The. New. One. And. Don't. Increase. The. Price. You. Were. Already. Profiting. With. The. Previous. Iteration.
- jmnicolas 2y agoYou're all going to buy it anyway, so why would they do anything differently?
- lancesells 2y agoWhat do they do with the old ones if they don't sell them? Also, as far as I can tell Apple does a decent job of maintaining a stable price even with inflation. Laptops like the Macbook Air cost less than when they launched in 2008 and have stayed relatively the same $1000. Obviously phones are the outlier and their cost has seemingly skyrocketed with all manufacturers.
