It's like, oh, well, you know, some Hollywood studio had a whole bunch of these and they they just swapped in a bunch of new monitors.

And so these are now.

But those are always beat to hell because they're not they're not treated gently.

Like it's not like, you know, old lady just drove a church on Sundays.

It's.

uh really worked hard and so yeah finding and especially if they have some kind of flaw in them that like the red line happens after x number of years if that's been sitting in a box in a warehouse for three and a half years and you buy it quote unquote new it could have the exact same you know problem with the red line or whatever other components are going to fail me i don't want to say anything too loud like mine is mine is fine has been problem free but like

Hang in there, XDR.

I would thoroughly research the 6K options and see if there are any of them that I could tolerate the appearance of, probably.

And if there wasn't, I would get the StudioSpy XDR.

Because I don't doubt that there are 6K monitors out there that are really good.

It's just a question of me, like, do I think the case is ugly?

And that may seem silly to you, but that's what I like.

The same as the MacBook Air M4.

Yeah, I mean, so this pricing is like, as we'll see when we get to the Neo, obviously, this was released a day before the Neo, but it's like, this is definitely leaving room for a lower priced computer below it.

So it is cheaper to get into a 512, but you could get into any MacBook Air for $100 less.

You just got the crappy 256.

So I think it's a reasonable move at the bottom of the pricing end.

We're not going to go into this much pricing detail with the other computers because I feel like once you get up to higher amounts of pricing, it gets more difficult.

But this is the low end.

Well, other than the Neo, this is a lower priced item.
