I know I've been sounding like a broken record on this, but… yeaaaaaaah.

Like, if Apple wants to price a display like that, more power to them. But if they then also make macOS less pleasant to use if you use a cheaper display, that's a real bummer.

If the entire iMac with 24-inch 4.5K display is $1300, that means the panel must be about half of that ($650). Maybe two thirds ($850). This suggests $1300 for the LG 27-inch 5K already came with quite a margin.

But the 2020 27-inch iMac with basically the same panel as this Studio Display started at $1800. You wanna tell me just $200 of that was the computer?
