Low end theory: Apple would do better to price its products more evenly<article>

When Apple announced the new lineup of iPads and Mac minis last week, I noticed a disturbing trend. We're used to Apple making the best products in every category and charging appropriately for them.

Many of them come across as unnecessarily hobbled devices, and while there might be a few instances where they'd be serviceable, I can't see myself recommending any of them. In fact, they remind me of
Road Apples, devices Apple used to sell back in the 1990s that were underpowered, not upgradeable and soon terminated.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2834761/low-end-theory-apple-could-do-better-to-price-its-products-more-evenly.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
