Apple Selling a Mac Monitor Stand for $999

There once was a time when a whole display was $999. How the times have changed...

Chinese knock offs for 100 usd should be available soon. Of course if you pay so much for the screen you probably don't mind the cost of the stand.

Ok this is silly but 24K gold is about 40$ per gram. Does anyone know the weight of this stand? Could I make one out of solid gold for that price :)?

Probably not with 24K gold, assuming the stand weighs more than 250g but 6K gold is about 10$/g so it’s still semi-possible :D

Not to mention the PC at $6K with 256GB SSD. Still consider the most innovative company. Those guys one day will sell smart coffee cups for 500 dollars.

This is a wonderfully unsubstantive article.

Not saying I think the pricing is “right” but separate for $999 is actually great for people who would’ve previously paid $999 for the whole display & thrown that part away in favor of a VESA mount.

Look at the bright side: you save $800 if you buy the VESA adapter instead … BYOA VESA mount, though; because the $199 adapter is just a dongle.
