Question 9- Reboot
When the 2013 Mac Pro was announced, news outlets reported that it was the first Apple computer since the '90s to be billed as what?
A. Cheaper than $1,000 B. Made in the U.S.A.
C. 100-percent recyclable D. Virus-proof
John verbally ruled out D since that is hard to make any computer virus-proof
He said there are issues with computer parts being non-recyclable today.
He said it is hard to make it cheaper than $1K but he was leaning towards that
Made in the USA? Would be great but there are a lot of components to a computer
A. 30% B. 41%
C. 20% D. 9%
Cedric asked if that helped him much? Not really
Repeated that made in the USA is hard to believe
Either go with his gut or go with the audience, but the audience was split.
Guess: A, Final Answer
B. Made in the U.S.A.
Value: $not revealed
Bank: Consolation $1000

I still have a JTQ and my ATA, but I think I can reason this one out. I can eliminate A and D right away. I don't think any computer can be completely recycled, so that only leaves B.
