I own a macbook pro which I bought on black friday for 500 dollars off and its still far more expensive than an equivalent windows laptop. only the OS is different. and your audi vs gm analogy is lame. apple is not a premium computer company. in fact its officially not a computer company at all. the mac has a different OS. the hardware is exactly the same as a windows laptop. the true reason macs cost more is apples intractability regarding profit margin. no other argument is valid. what is your point? didnt you formerly edit pc world? every issue talking about some paranoia with privacy and hackers and viruses? is it possible for you to come up with a NEW topic for discussion?
