Did you win the Mac Pro at a nitpicking contest?

(hint: Mac Pro is that overpriced exactly because if you buy that you're gonna buy LESS Macs in the future because of its upgreadability. Enjoy the rapidly aging CPUs)

it lacks an iBicycle to power it up while you're not within distance from wall socket.

need a computer upgrade? Throw the old one away.

that's apple policy to upgrades, and it always has been. That's why they don't sell low end CPUs: the point is to make machines last enough for consumer to swallow this pill and buy another mac.

Apple should simply integrate a modern GPU in their monitors: there's room to properly cool down and the monitor becomes the definitve docking station. It would also justify the price, even if it's slightly increased.

I never farmed and I never had any need for money. It's just a matter of playstyle: instead of farming gold to buy BOE epics for 500g, I devoted that time to play in endgame non-raid instances and ended up with better gear, more money and far more fun.
You can apply the same reasoning for raid-obtainable BOE epics, because it takes less time to access or even create a PVE raiding guild and farm Molten Core than to amass the insame amount of money needed to buy those epics. They also are rarely on the market.
Buying epics is just plain stupid, unless you prefer to grind than run an instance. In this case, you chose the wrong game.
Hint: you don't need the best equipment to be able to do certain things. Wow is far more based on playskill than on gear.
