I find the comparison with a car a bit amusing, though I get your point. Usually, a car spends more than 95% of the time parked somewhere, whereas a smartphone or a computer are usually used for at least a few hours everyday. I’m not saying that cars are useless in comparison. It’s just that they’re not even near the same category on what they offer to the user.

Just for the lulz, I just maxed out a MacPro: $52,299.

I know I'm cheap and what not, but there's not many things in my world that costs $52k. A car is the most relatable thing in that price range to me, so that's where I turn. I'm guessing for some of you overpaid SV types <ducks>, that's just an average night at the club. We all relate to things differently.
