You are so right. At the moment its 14k for 28 * 2.5Ghz Xeon W with 32GB of ram and 2 TB of ssd storage. This is 10000 over an equivalent machine. This is 250% markup.

Insane. For that price you could build a monster Threadripper box.

I won't say it's insane but now lack of Threadripper or EPYC is serious lineup defect. I'm exciting how Apple make competitive chip.
