Don't want to say anything against a Mac, I am sure they are great
machines. But here in Austria you can get for ~640 Euro (thats equal to
your $800) a normal PC with:
*) Intel P4 with 3GHz
*) 512 MB RAM
*) 80 GB HDD
*) DVD drive
etc. (just looked up a complete system)
If I would buy a new computer, I would think twice if I really want a Mac,
if there is such a difference between Mac and PC for this price...
Greetings, Matthias
