I don't see any extra frills (unless you count retina display on the new MBP). Certainly not any to warrant the 30-70% markup. You can't compare the BRZ/FRS to Apple/PC. I got my fully loaded BRZ for 27,900 with a few extras installed. That's about 12% higher than an FRS, not 30-70. People buy Macs for the image, not the function. I don't know why anyone would game on a Mac, it's not like you can just slap in a high end video card and expect it to work. But I digress....

Back on topic indeed. I haven't seen any answers to any of my questions.

1) Can this be detectable by the dealer? Yes or no. Guarantees offered?
2) Are we forced to only flashing the maps you send us? Or do we get to tweak them ourselves? I have pretty extensive tuning experience myself so I could easily fix something that might not function entirely correctly on my particular car.
3) Are they available for order yet?
