My son grabbed a base model version the other day and we put an 1TB SSD upgrade in it. What a little hot rod.

Agree!
I have a 2TB in mine and I just can't believe the amount of computing power for the price.

It's the best deal in all of tech right now if you ask me.

Not a week goes by that I'm not irritated about Microcenter not being in my region.

The deals are often incredible!

If you are in the US, Best Buy price matches them. I just price match Best Buy online with micro center and go pick up in store same day. Haven’t bought a Mac without a MC price match in years at this point.
