How can apple justify $1000 for a stand?

You could hear the crowd gasp when they listed $999 for the stand.

In case anyone is wondering, this refers to the display stand. I guess you don’t pay the $999 if you already have a display arm.

They could have just charged an extra $1000 for it, but if you want to use a VESA mount you shouldn't have to absorb the cost of the stand.

Then you just have to absorb $199 for the VESA mount.
