What % of those sales are companies buying them for their employees? It's almost a B2B market. Whereas the Vision Pro is overwhelmingly B2C, at least it will be with the current state of the technology. Hence very different pricing dynamics.

I didn’t say it will sell as much as MacBook Pros as soon as it hits $2000.

I’m saying there will be a market.

They need to get the weight and price down substantially.

> I’m saying there will be a market.

Perhaps, but how is the price or popularity of MacBook pros particularly related to that?

That a fairly large market exists for $2000+ Apple device.

You can use them (MBPs) to actually make money. AVPs mostly make money to 2-bit YouTube influencers making videos about it…

Well, a $5000 80” TV doesn’t make you money either.

I think the Vision Pro needs to be as comfortable and convenient to use as a TV, or it needs to be cheaper. And/or it needs a new killer app.

It's sitting in a weird place right now where it's too expensive for what you get, but it's fairly easy to imagine how it could improve to become something much more attractive/popular.

MBPs are overwhelmingly bought by businesses for their employees.

MBP returns you the investment pretty soon
