How much is the most expensive MacBook..
CarterPCs hears someone at an Apple event mention a MacBook with 128 gigabytes and assumes they mean storage. They mean RAM. That is a rather different laptop.
Playing both sides of the encounter in a quick comedy reenactment, Carter turns the misunderstanding into a shopping experiment: how expensive can a fully loaded MacBook Pro get? The Short has drawn roughly 4.3 million views since yesterday.
He selects the larger model, nano-texture glass, a high-end graphics configuration, maximum memory and a huge storage upgrade. The total lands just shy of $15,000. This is a configurator exercise, not a purchase or a performance test.
Viewers turn the price into jokes about a laptop that ought to contribute toward rent and hardware destined for ordinary spreadsheet work. Carter, meanwhile, drops the shopping bravado for a simpler assessment: "That's better than my PC."
