    Jesus, MacBooks cost 5K? That’s ridiculous, I’d expect that for a nice gaming laptop.

    It’s a good point. The only bespoke thing on there, as far as I can tell, is the R1 chip. I assume a cord with enough bandwidth could be found in order to have a more modular system. The MacBook end may or may not have the port capacity for that, though.

      Maybe a bit of hyperbole there but they certainly can be. A fully upgraded Mac Pro is ~$7k.

      Yeah, I mean put that in the headset and leave the rest in the laptop. It’s the same chip.
