You assume anyway. We really don’t know.The collaboration part was the price.

And they are labeled Apple products. This is not.Apple computers, iPhones, iPods and other Apple products are developed in collaboration with Foxconn and other Chinese companies in China.

How is it justified? Apple works with companies that make apps, too. So are they responsible for the pricing of said apps? If the apps are unpopular do you blame Apple?Apple worked with Blackmagic to produce this. The rants are justified.

But they lay the blame on Apple. I have no opinion on if this product is good or bad or a good value. Although it seems to offer some things that others do not.So far (most) people are ranting about an extremely overpriced piece of hardware, no matter who builds it.

I see where you’re going but I won’t make that leap. Technical assistance can mean anything. Apple wanted a eGPU to show off and offered help to Black Magic. Everything else is really speculation.I think most people realise Blackmagic's eGPU is not an Apple product. It is, however, an Apple recommended product. Just like that Apple recommended LG monitor. Giving that recommendation to an overpriced and underpowered for the money eGPU invites the criticism. Criticism which has been focus on Apple and Blackmagic.
Criticism is even more justified since, again like the LG Monitor, it was developed in collaboration with Apple. Kind of a "in for penny, in for a pound" situation dontcha think?
