You're missing the fact that he doesn't need a new MacBook Pro. It's a luxury item. If Chromebooks are perfectly functional for school use cases, clearly a new MBP is entirely unnecessary. If he wants OS X and a retina screen, the baseline MB 12 is more suitable for his needs. Or he could get an older, used MBP.
You might be missing the point here. I think what the parent was saying is that Apple are not making a sale because they're (needlessly?) keeping their margin at X% whereas someone who currently states they can't afford that would've bought a MBP for Y% less margin.
But then again, who needs an MBP? Maybe if you have a use case that is only covered by an Apple Laptop and not a similarly specced model with Windows and Linux - but most people who buy a MBP want one, not need one. (Which is perfectly fine, I'm not judging)
Why are all of the example photos so horribly downsized and compressed? The picture of the Eiffel Tower is only 920 × 690. That's laughable compared to the 12.3 megapixels it should be. If you're reviewing image quality, you should give the readers the original files captured by the camera.
There's no way readers can say anything definitive about Pixel's camera quality without real data.
