I'd love to have customers like Apple. Bumps $200: "it didn't change!!!"
And no power adapter included.
To be fair, ever since the advent of high power USB-C PD that really, really is not needed any more, way too many power bricks are effectively e-waste.
People already have USB-C power bricks and docks everywhere and unlike pre-USB-C generations, you can use them not just across different generations of hardware, but across vendors as well.
Now it starts at $1699, a $100 bump but comes with a 1TB SSD. Previously it would have cost $1799 for the 1T SSD, so it's a $100 bump on base price but you are also getting 1TB SSD for $100 less than before.
Try making a good product that people love?
I wonder if that would happen regardless of RAM, e.g. for tariffs etc.
