this is the standard 27inch iMac, it costs $2k
If i would have to buy a new one once a year it translates to a cost of $5 a day
I understand poor people can not spend $5 a day on computing , but your average professional user ( anyone with a job ) should be able to afford this IMHO

ok lets try some more math. If the median of salaries in the US is 31000$ a year (i think thats before taxes) and you take 2000$ from that that's about 6.5% of their income before taxes. Since 31k is the median, it would mean that doesn't represent a poor person and those percentages would just go higher up the less they make, which would make your argument that the average person can easily afford a new mac every year invalid ;)
Also you can easily find a capable pc for under 1200$ these days, not 2000$ Not many business men need gaming capabilities!
haven't seen a maddox post in years. Almost forgot about that shit, always been hilarious.
