Can we try to stop calling $399 a mic drop moment? It wouldn't be. It sounds like a natural evolution of what Sony did with the pro. 12 months on with more ram and a highly clicked but similar size APU. It screams $399
This premium talk is all MS bullshit. It isn't a magical 4k/60 PC ultra box even though MS always seem to talk about Scorpio like that (indirectly - things like 'well you could spend thousands on a Titan SLI setup..) and it isn't going to cost $500
I think they'll get their mic drop but it won't be heard very far. There's no 500 dollar competitor to make 399 look good. "A lot of people thought it would be 499" is a flimsy substitute. It would have to be 299 to get the real impact. Probably not happening. Hence the 499 whisper campaign.
