Apple Silicon is extremely cheap to manufacture if you're not considering the billions they put into developing it.(#759)Don't day have to pay TSMC to make the CPUs for Macs, iPhones, and iPads?wait wait where can i get a car for $1999??? I agree a lot. The starting price of the 2021 MacBook Pro is probably enough to buy a car.
sure - 1999 is a lot of money for a laptop, but its worth it for someone who enjoys the advantages of macOS and it's performance, it will actually turn out to be a profit for a lot of people who use MacBooks for work. if you dont want a 10 core CPU and 16 core GPU, get a MacBook Air.Clarification - Intel Mac Mini's are probably more expensive to manufacture since they have to pay Intel for the chips. I think there's nothing wrong - just Apple being $ Apple $

True, manufacturing costs was what made the newer MacBook Air the same price as before but 10x better in almost every aspect. Apple Silicon is extremely cheap to manufacture if you're not considering the billions they put into developing it.

disclaimer: sometimes my posts are pretty critical of the scratch team (especially my older ones), but i really do scratch & scratch team. jvvg made a short essay thing about the scratch team, which is a pretty good read, if you want a different perspective for the scratch team's actions.

Tried network recovery once more and it succesfully installed High Sierra. Also it's an Early 2011 Macbook Pro not a 2012 sorry for the confusion.
