Cheap Mac (Dec 30 2004 23:37 GMT) - Courtesy of Think Secret, rumours of a new Barebones Mac, sans display, for the sub-$500 price-point -- that's ~ÂŁ270 in "real money". Amusingly, this is the market I've long been told by the "Mac faithful" that Apple wanted no part of, because it was "cheap and nasty" (not to mention the snob value and "you get what you pay for" type comments). It should be interesting to see how this sells, given the number of people who like MacOS X but have thus far refused to pay the high "Mac tax" type prices. Personally, I think it could be a good move, if only as a "foot in the door" -- get people to try a low-end box and upgrade to a faster more expensive box later on, though of course that would likely mean these "barebones" machines will have very limited expansion capability. Expect a new rant from me when it's launched in the UK at ÂŁ499 ; |
