give us something to work with: 2 comparable products, the non-Apple one being significantly lower in price and then we can discuss it. should be easy right?

zest: when I last bought a mac, i looked at an imac and a mac pro. I compared both with machines of the same (or as close as I could get) spec at both dell and hp. All three were pretty closely matched on price, apple was sometimes slightly cheaper and sometimes slightly more, depending on the exact config.

For the mac pro, I'd chose that over a dell or hp every time, because the quality of the hardware is way ahead of what dell + hp put out. For the imac it's more difficult, because I compared an all-in-one design with normal box + monitor designs.. the box is upgradable, but the imac takes no space and is near silent, so it depends on what you want. Equivalent all in one designs to the imac tend to be lower spec and more expensive.

So, is it me being an idiot for buying high priced stuff here, or you for believing the very hype and bullshit you're arguing about? ;)

niels_tpb: Sorry I couldn't find any comparable apple laptop with 9800M SLI or Quadro FX3700M graphics card (or any equivalent in speed and features). Maybe you could help me finding one?
