When they say “open box” they just really are not kidding. /s

I’ll be a sucker for having bought a 13 Mini but I’m like everyone else here who would want the Mini of these options… I don’t think Apple will do that but they should.

If you’re like 16 or 18 years old or something and live in the developed world, at least know that there will probably eventually be a time when a device that costs $400-680 is not going to necessitate a financial recovery in your life. Doesn’t help when you’re young and you don’t have money, but it probably won’t always be like that.

I mean… so basically, “OMG Gaben is so mean to me he made me this really great device that is priced ridiculously low and it was a good deal when I bought it and then he went and made it even better without telling me he would?”

How do we live in a world where this is what we complain about instead of saying other companies should do what Valve did?

“We will do the thing when it makes more sense to do the thing than to not do the thing.”

I mean, I want to see a future RDNA be huge. AMD needs to make progress in dedicated RT/AI cores and in the machine learning tech for gaming. But it’s a leap to think that the company that powers both major consoles will just go extinct in the PC space - especially when there is nothing fundamentally wrong with the current GPUs - just they don’t have a big enough generational uplift and the launch prices were wrong.
