They're primarily a design company. The aesthetic is the selling point. It's like buying a Mac to play videogames. It'll play em, but not as well as something much cheaper.

I don’t have any expertise on this sort of thing to weigh in… so I’ll defer to you there, and would humbly suggest the aesthetic is the important part for this community.

And your Mac analogy has been true for a long time, but is becoming outdated ;)

Oh, I know. It's got that aesthetic that we're here for for sure.
