There is a difference between not “needing” expensive hardware and saying the hardware is overpriced compared to the competition.

If you haven’t noticed, Apple doesn’t sell low end products. You’re not going to find a Mac with an “Intel® Pentium® Gold Processor G5400” with 4GB OF RAM for $349.

What Im saying is that this is a very niche market. Other companies are barely present here.

It's the same with Microsofts 40" Surface machines. If you let that define "The workstation" then no one has a real alternative to that.

The submitted article is about:

- An Apple product

- a 32 inch monitor with a 6K display for $6000

- that will probably be sold with a $5000 computer that is expandable to 1.5TB of RAM and a 28 core workstation class processor.

Which part of this discussion is not about a niche product?

On the other hand, the entire desktop market is a niche market. Most PCs being sold today are laptops.
