The "problem" is, that Apple wants to apply crazy high prices for an SSD

more reasonable prices for hardware, it could be a little more fair for
everyone involved.

Apple charges it because people pay it.

Yep, they have always charged what they can get away with, and it seems
Apple tragic's will happily pay whatever they ask.



And on the PC desktop end of things, you have expensive hardware
and junk hardware and there is no middle ground there either.


Now that is just plain wrong. It's easy to buy a new generic PC from
about $500 to over $8k with every conceivable price point in between
well covered. Perhaps not from every single manufacturer, but you have
SO many to choose from, unlike Apple.
