Yeah, I just tried configuring a lower midrange model that would be a reaso=
nable upgrade over my 4 year old i7-7820x with is mildly air OC'd to 4.4 Gh=
z with a 128GB RAM and P6000 GPU and could not keep the price under $15k un=
less I went with a GPU that I suspect is slower than my P6000 for most work=
 or dropped my SSD storage below what I have now.

I'm sorry, but that's just about the most ridiculous thing Apple has ever l=
aunched. I honestly can't think of anyone I know that would buy a $15k desk=
top that was not configured like the $52k max out option.=20

That being said, the monitor might not be if it actually performs as well a=
s Apple claims and can be a honest to goodness replacement for $30k referen=
ce monitors. That feels more like the best of Apple, not cheap, but breaks =
the market open by offering something nobody can afford to something we cou=
ld afford.

Best,=20

A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be =

the meaning, all that comes later.
