An average junior software developer here is making $10,000 a year. Hypothetically if they bought a new M1 Macbook Pro they'd spend $1,700 for the cheapest model (compared to around $1,500).
If there is a manufacturing issue that shows up after a year, they're down ~17% of their annual salary for a defective product.
