Is it me or this laptop is eye-wateringly expensive? I'm no Mac noob but it's getting a little hard to justify the expense to stay in the ecosystem.

The stock configurations are exactly the same price as the 15" used to be, but now with double the storage. So it's actually better value now than it was.

and... I'm feeling it because I just bought the 15" $2799 model 5 months ago, couldn't justify the extra $ on a 1TB model, and now it's built in. :/

It costs the same as the 15" did while starting at a much better base configuration, so if anything it's nice that they didn't felt like increasing the price.

I do wonder how the prices stalk up historically, adjusted for inflation. Flagship iPhones apparently are getting more expensive[1].
