Ask HN: Why hasn't x86 caught up with Apple M series?

Most people know intuitively that a below-market mortgage rate is valuable...now you can quantify that value with ease, no need to build an Excel spreadsheet. I built this tool because I wish it existed for my own use, so maybe you'll find it valuable too- totally free!

A meaningless ad. Don't bother as the "calculator" is just a sales funnel and no "value" will be given.

A meaningless comment. It is a calculator (no quotes necessary) and a value most literally is given.

No value is given. It is obfuscated. No "calculator" requires my email address to give an answer. What you have is a classic sales funnel that prompts users for information in the hopes that when they have done the work of providing that information they will continue on to provide personal information. Note as well that your initial post requires a "SHOW" tag. Please don't spam this kind of nonsense here.

This is cool, hadn't thought about it this way before. Not a difficult calculation or anything, but could be pretty quick and useful info for someone considering selling or refinancing.
