Oof. 😮‍💨 🥴

The chart is hard to look at.
I'm so glad I bought before all the price hikes.

Like everyone here, it is amazing to see discounted prices that are higher than the non-discounted prices a few weeks ago. Since it is likely these machines were made before the price hike, one can assume that the margins are higher on these machines than they are now, but it would be a little over confident to assume that.

Anyway I did buy both the Neo and a base M5 MBA at pre-increase prices and seemed to have saved a lot of money accidentally since I had no idea Apple would increase by such a large amount. This is sad for all of us and for those that were still waiting or trying to decide whether one of these machine was appropriate when the price rises took effect, I am truly sympathetic. It is not your fault and it seems grossly unfair that a technology you are supposed to be able to use to improve the use of these machines (AI, LLMs) are pricing you out of buying a machine to use it. I am not sure who is going to win here, but it certainly does not seem like the ordinary consumer.
