Re: Crappy SD != internal flash
Why not have a look at the price of their power supplies?
You have managed to name the one thing that Apple no longer has a firm grip on. With USB-C, you can use any 3rd party PSU and use it to power a Mac (and vice versa, a MacBook PSU will quite happily feed a Dell laptop via USB-C).
Actually, there's more that you don't need Apple for. Why on earth anyone would want to fork out what Apple wants for their screens is beyond me - I have been using PC screens for over 10 years now and they've done the job quite well, at a more acceptable price range.
The point of hardware is to make *intelligent* choices, but there are so many variables that what works for you may not work at all for someone else.
