A pro is same as an air but with a fan so its not throttled.

Also these drain battery so unless integrated by apple its useless

They have $999 monitor stand so its very standard Apple ~~gouging~~ pricing.

Itemized invoice:

Fan $ 7
Design & overhead to incorporate fan into design $ 13
Value of increased performance, as judged by the accounting department $480

[–] Rootiest@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cost of accounting department analysis: $50

So, no you actually save $30 getting a Pro!
