You are paying for OS instead the hardware.
the specs aren't even bad
>>59740271
But you can install OS X on any hardware? As long as it's not new.
>>59740027
They updated it.
By your logic, PCs are computers from 1984.
Stay mad Pajeet!
They're releasing a modular one next year
they announced they're making a new one anyway
>>59740271
a fucking SHIT OS at that
no thank you
>>59740359
Are you retarded? All they did was reduce their markup on the same components from 400% to 300%. This is still an E5-1620 from 4 years ago and a low-end desktop gpu branded as a "workstation gpu" that's slower than a laptop gpu.

they updated CPUs and GPUs to current ones. These are not gaymer CPUs you stupid idiot. They're floating point for CAD and 3D modeling work.
>>59740334
Yeah. And that's why pretty much everyone has switched to hackintosh now.
The Mac Retro here is worthless.

>they updated CPUs and GPUs to current ones
Ok, find me an 8 core xeon at 3.0ghz that isn't 4 years old. Also, find any evidence that AMD has released an updated version of that gpu without changing its name. I'll wait.
>>59740027
damn you guys are really upset with today's announcement eh? try finding something productive to be obsessed over besides a company that sells computers you don't like.
>>59740387
keep saying it, that'll make it true
meanwhile every dev in the world happily types away on their macbook pros.
>>59740271
You could also just pirate the OS and get it for free
>>59740749
Yup, hackintosh is fucking dope, it's like what Linux users want Linux to be.
>>59740761
So it's just a command line, no DE at all?
That's what real Linux users want
>>59740027
>2 extra cores and another 6GB of video memory is an extra $1000
Hahahahahahahahahahaha
>>59740806
Do you remember the 2013 MBP's? They wanted an extra 250 dollars for a 100mhz overclock of the same processor
>>59740729
My shitty 3gb GTX 1060 outperforms this garbage in every way, yes even for CAD and 3d modeling work.

Hahaha. Fucking iCucks.

>4gb ram
>100 dollars
was this before or after they started soldering the ram?

>>59740749
Same with windows but anyone that sells new laptops still charges you $50-100 for it.
In my country Mac is so expensive that the cheapest new MacBook Pro is literally 2x as expensive as a 16gb xps 15
>>59741500
What country is that?
In australia Macs aren't cheap but anything else worth buying is disgustingly overpriced to the point that it makes buying a mac seem sensible.
>>59740287
256 GB of storage is terrible for $3,000.

>tfw using a 5 year old MacBook and I have double the storage because I can actually upgrade this
