I would assume a lot of it is popularity. All-in-one devices are a dying breed and most that buy them hold on to them for a long time.

Only decent return on investments are iPhones and MacBooks. Everything is awful.
There is no such thing as a return on an investment when it comes to consumer electronics. They are depreciating assets.

Imagine spending almost 10k on a fully specced MacBook Pro with 8TB just to receive "up to $760" for it. I'd rather use it to the ground way beyond its supported lifespan.
