The last time I have seen something like this was during hyperinflation in east Europe for 40 years ago.

Sucks for those who absolutely need those laptops and are also stuck with apple's OSes/ecosystem. Others will get a much cheaper laptop and build a desktop PC separately.

@slws The directions have reversed now.

I think it may be good eventually. Suddenly, other choices are smarter - especially for desktops. At these prices, desktop without upgradeable RAM and storage is just irrelevant. As for a laptop, Macbook Air may do.
