I think the short answer as to why it is only money that counts is
because our nation is run as a society based almost entirely upon the
precepts of capitalism. One can take note of how our media generally
rate the potential of a Presidential candidate to be nominated based
upon how much money they have raised.
As to how this relates to computers, one could posit the premise
that Macs are superior because they cost more.
