I don't understand the misinformation that's out there that Mac is more expensive than a PC. Mac mini's are now in the same range as the cheaper-range Dells, and ibooks are some of the cheapest laptops out there, even compared to current Wintel laptops. If price is reasoning for not getting a Mac, it should no longer be a reason.
