Back in my days, we had tons of memes for the mac pro. They went like:

You could buy a Mac Pro with these specs (…) or you could buy:

  • another computer with better specs
  • a house
  • Russia
  • a Cybertruck
  • and green_day.mp3

… and still pay less.

    After a while we just acknowledged that apple was a meme and let the jokes write themselves.

    You could buy 1/2 of a Leica M6 for that.

      Leica is truly the camera you buy when you just don’t god damn know what to do with all this money anymore.

        I feel like Phase 1 and Hasselblad are that to me.

        I could potentially justify a Leica if I shot a lot of film and traveled a lot.

          I’m moving into video more and more so there’s no shortage of unaffordable cameras I’d love to get my hands on… But I’ve been pretty happy sticking with canon for literal decades (though a long break in the middle), I’m waiting to see the next refresh on their cinema lineup with RF mounts.

    Surprisingly, that’s actually not enough to be able to rent the entire country of Liechtenstein for a day. You need 20 times that money.

      Depends on the currency and where you’re from, but when it’s written 3500$ its typically because that’s how it’s pronounced. Thirty five hundred dollars. It’s not a hard and fast rule.

        I was just trying to be helpful. The vision pro is only available in the US as far as I know, so therefore it’s USD. In that case the $ goes before the number. It is a “hard and fast rule”. If we’re going to be technically correct. The best kind of correct :). Not trying to be a butthole. Just trying to help people with grammar or spelling? idk. I hope y’all have a great day.

      The dollar always goes first, especially with apple products
