Do those things warrant 6x the price? Or, in reality, 12x the price? Let's be real here, the exact hardware specs down to material aside, is it?

    Just to be clear in regard to your original comment:

    600 is absolutely outrageous in a world where used hardware exists.

    You expect manufacturers to sell laptops for fifty bucks?

    I expect people to be able to obtain a laptop for 50 or 100 bucks, which they apparently can. Manufacturers should have to reckon with that fairly, or lose business.

    I want to destroy new device culture.
