for macintosh

I think the mac guys can afford whatever price for anything

EDIT : You might be thinking, Skullgrid, buddy, that's surely a supplemental accessory stand, and the actual display unit comes with a cheaper default stand , right?

FUCKING WRONG

They sold a 5K DOLLAR , not pixel, monitor that was basically a thin frame, and went, yeah, if you don't want to dump it on the floor, stand sold seperately, at ONE FIFTH of the price of the actual product.

If mac users can afford to swallow this shit, they can pay extra for ram. Which they were doing anyway, since it's fucking iMcRam exclusively anyway.

I have never met a Mac user that bought one of these and most Macs I see being used are several years old at this point. Not sure who you’re ranting about.

Just because Ford makes the GT doesn’t mean they’re all premium.
