It seems that Apple was not satisfied with selling a monitor stand for $ 999, and now it goes for more: For those who bought a Mac Pro with fixed legs, The apple company is offering an upgrade kit that includes four wheels at a small price of $ 699.
For comparison, with that money we can buy a high-end RTX 2080 Super, or buy a basic model for $ 699 and we have an extra $ 100 to spend. Besides, within those US $ 699 the tools for the installation are not included, which must be purchased separately.
For those in the opposite situation, who bought their Mac Pro with wheels and want to leave their PC still, Apple offers the four fixed legs for U $ S 299, almost 300 dollars for four metal legs that cost 5 dollars or even less.
While the cost of the computer itself is justified by some on the software side, these excessive costs on accessories like wheels or a monitor stand are too much on Apple's part. Unfortunately there are no public sales figures on the different products, so we will not be able to see how many sales they have, although we doubt that they sell too many wheels for 800 dollars. TO
What do you think about the prices Apple puts on accessories? Do you think it is abusive to charge US $ 699 for four wheels?
