I wonder if that changes how people feel about handing over hundreds, even thousands of dollars for this thing...
You've got to hand it to Apple though... what an incredible company.. to make products with such an insane profit margin, but thanks to perhaps the best marketing and sales strategy of any company in the world, they will sell millions of them.
Uh, do you know how much anything costs? Furniture generally is sold at a 300-500% markup. Your TV has a huge markup. The pots, pans, and silverware in your house are around 120% of cost. That nintendo game costs like 0 to distribute, which means it has an infinite markup.
How do you feel about paying for things?
