I remember seeing it and thinking "No, this can't be real. No way Apple actually did this."

Edit: I just checked and if you apply all upgrades, the total hardware cost is $12,348. That's 3.5th the price of the future  Vision Pro

Have fun with your seven thousand dollar cheese grater.

Might’ve been a marketing move to connect to the apple pie with cheese demographic.

Did they just forget to crop the whole thing? It looks even more hideous with the grey background on the black background.

My browser is forcing dark mode on it and the picture is not transparent.

That's what i'm saying. I looked for a CPU cooler lastly and Noctua & co. (all with dark webpage) all neatly cut their product image on transparent. But Apple can't bother for their overpriced cheesegrater.
