Oh man, one of those things, yeah maybe. But they are still way cheaper. It's more like AlienWare pre-made kits to be on par with Apple upcharge. I mean the way I've always owned PC's, I buy all the parts on New Egg and build them and replace parts incrementally for years. But I'm talking about for a gaming machine. For real work where I have to use the computer as a user, I always use Macs. Apple because I want to, PC because that's the only option depending on the use. But I can't help but think you could take a premade HP or Dell and still swap all the parts from NewEgg for a long time.Originally Posted by Josh Beadle
But again, if someone likes the image and experience of a more expensive camera- just Like a Mac - It's worth the extra cost for some people to pay for the premium experience even if they get boned on replacing large parts of it in the future (you keep buying Mac's right?). We do get paid after all to turn in images, not to tell the client how cool the thing breaks into interchangeable parts and how much money we save on upgrades or how many more pixels of resolution are avail if they ever feel like using them someday. I will agree with you though that the design of the DSMC system is absolutely fantastic and is what made me buy an EPIC-M in the first place. They should be given huge kudos for it. But ironically I'm (really the buyer is) getting boned so far trying to sell it. And that kind of kills any joy or love I have over this whole thing. It's a lose/lose/lose for me/buyer/Red. I hope the buyer isn't soured on Red before he even gets to appreciate what he's getting :(
