They really need to rename this web site
"mac whiners " I never seen a more whining group of individuals that are on this forum.
If Apple came out with a new device that made you irresistible to the opposite sex, produced for you a never ending supply of cash and provided you with eternal health and happiness. Most of you would find something to complain about.

Once again, I see the issue of a system with a very high resolution display coupled with inadequate CPU/GPUs. :(

Anyone saying that it's underpowered is a freaking teletubbie.
a 5k display in an industry where PCs in 4k isn't even standard yet, windows doesn't even handle scaling well and still with young crappy hardware at high cost.
way to kick their butt Apple.

Costs the same as a cheaply-made, lower-quality, creaky plastic 5k Dell display* with no speakers or camera... Oh, and you get a free computer with it!
