I didn't "miss the point" at all.
For a mere $200 more you get a machine with a SSD Fusion drive ... PLUS ... you get a slightly faster processor and a better GPU ... all for only $200 including the SSD.
Just what were you expecting to add a SSD option for?
Would you be happy if they just included the SSD for a reasonable (for Apple) $200 option? And then had the other upgrades for an additional $200?
??? sorry, but you really missed the point... complaint is about unrational (from consumers point of view, not apples revenues, of course) restriction on upgrade options, thats all.. not allowing to upgrade (FOR BLOODY MONEY) base model is simply ridiculous
