Well, when Apple was still using 68xxx processors, I was a big fan of Macintosh computers. They had better service, a far better and more powerful operating system and many other advantages. And it was a real graphical operating system as opposed to the Windows 95 based on DOS. The high price was somehow justified. The advantages Apple had over the old Windows computers, however, the Centaur can not show compared to other chess computers. In this respect this is not really comparable.
And you think that comparing price setting from a computer in the 1980's and a chess computer from 2019 is comparable?
I use a lot of Apple products, iMac's, iPad's, MacBook and iPhone. They are expensive and i.m.o. overpriced, but to me they are worth it, just as the Centaur is worth its price to me. That is what I wanted to compare.
If you look neutral then there are products for half the price of Apple product and have the same capacity. I'm quite sure that members here, who say that the Centaur is much overpriced, are the owner of an overpriced iPhone. That was my point. That is measuring with two standards.
