    Not only did Valve maintain the same price, they made a bunch of refinements to improve repairability and component accessibility.

    This is Valve subsidizing the PC gaming industry as a whole, content to make a shitload ($6b+/year) off their sales commissions that will grow alongside the industry.

    Apple on the other hand expects to get paid for the device, the repairs, the software and digital content, and by the developers too.
