Apple sells mass market by marketing it as luxury. And to be fair, it kinda is. The OS on the Neo is the same as on a Mac Pro (RIP)

Microsoft had done something similar (twice!) but Apple polished the living daylights out of it.

All those are true but they didn’t have bombs dropping on them . In the civil war not only might your son be sent to the front, but the front might end up in your yard.

I think they’re saying there’s another stepdown coming, the job in two weeks for $1,000 is right around the corner.
