Why does a home espresso machine cost as much as a computer?

Even when the body is made out of plastic they are still hundreds of dollars. The components of the machine can’t be that expensive. Is there some snobbery factor involved in the pricing since before Starbucks, “everyday people” weren’t drinking much espresso.
