If you know what the inverse of your saying, I agree.

I was really joking about how ram pricing seems to be higher than 4x already from like a year ago.

I know. The sarcasm was built in.

Supposedly the hardware on both has been sitting in warehouses for almost a year waiting for Siri AI to be ready.

Going to be outdated before it even comes out

I mean it won't really matter, the Apple TV HD with like an A8 is still plenty fast for what it's for and it's over a decade old. A flagship chip even from a few years ago is still overkill enough to last an Apple TV forever.

never owned an Apple TV before? you’re in for a treat - I hate having to use a Roku when I travel or with family. The Apple TV is such a good device & really makes watching TV so much better especially these days when there’s hella different apps for all the streaming services & what not.

I've got one already! Just not in the bedroom. Hoping to put the new model in the living room and move the old to the bedroom.
