WTF Apple? The display stand cost extra 1000 bucks?

This is getting crazy. You’re buying a display for 5k dollars. But it’s without stand. The stand costs extra 1000$. Are you crazy Apple? https://www.macrumors.com/2019/06/03/apple-pro-display-xdr-stand-costs-extra-999/

The gap between the wealthy and the rest of us grows larger and larger Who is spending 6,000 on a desktop?

I did before and I will again. But this monitor stand fiasco is too much.

MacPro is without display for 5k bucks. If you go for Apple pro display it costs extra 5k bucks. And it comes without stand!!! The stand costs extra 1000 bucks.

But its the most beautiful, amazing, perfectly designed, heavenly experience-inducing stand you have seen in your life, right??

It's art and cheaper than a lamp. In terms of furniture this is very inexpensive. It's not claiming to be a budget stand.

lolol that’s a nice way to put it. I like your thinking.

Always interesting how much psychology messes with logic. People will spend 5 to 10k on a couch or refrigerator without thinking about it but pause when it comes to a computer. The couch doesnt even get wifi.

What amazes me is how very different approaches can lead to success, when you compare the two A-s in FAANG. Apple is like - just keep increasing the price, they’ll come. Amazon is - just keep reducing the price, they’ll come. Apple is, here is our minimalist offering - take it or GTFO. Amazon is - does such a thing exist? Yeah can prime ship tomorrow. We keep proving them right.
