I am sloooowly coming round to the realisation that:

1. I am not Apple's demographic;
2. I am too poor to own Apple products.

C'est la vie. :oops:

Buyers don't care. Even if it cost $1,999 for apple care...they will buy it.
Remember when the iPad was a nice to have secondary device around the house for entertainment purposes. This is one expensive Netflix machine of a Pro device that does not support multi-user accounts.

Lol, Apple has lost touch with reality, this is some RDF pricing.

Never needed AppleCare for any of my devices, if one does there are more affordable options.

Nah, buying Apple products frequently will make the “average” consumer poor faster. Seriously beautiful products released today, however not indicted to purchase any of them.

Apple does not want people to upgrade annually, by increasing the price people will use their devices longer and Apple can claim its Environmentally Green prize. Is this not evident to people.
Come on, really?
