Comparing prices: Mac vs. Windows laptops

[jason]

Comparing prices: Mac vs. Windows laptops is another article comparing Macs vs PCs. This time it is laptops. Of course they compare similarly configured machines from real companies, not gray market. The answer’s the same as always. Macs laptops cost the same or less than PCs for the same features and function, and the illusory cheaper price is at a cost.

ok. I get your point. We just disagree. I'll never see a Dell or an Acre as worth comparing to an Apple. Totally different worlds. Never owned an acre, but Dell's are nightmares. Lenovo HP and Fujitsu would meet my criteria. Dell may have changed, but it when I was buying dells they did not use the same chips from box to box, seemign to throw in whatever was cheapest. But that was 7-8 years ago. All I know now is that we never get a laptop that doesn't fall apart. Though I'd probably bring in the notion of innovation, which costs. But that wasn't part of the original discussion.
