Ah yes, the classic "Macs are more expensive" argument. Don't look now, folks, but Mac laptops are actually cheaper than Dell or IBM (Lenovo), at least for now. My father-in-law is pretty anti-Mac, and he just bought my sister-in-law a MacBook for school. It was quite interesting to go over all the laptop choices he was considering. At the time, the cheapest dual-core Dell that matched the MacBook specs was about $100 more than the MacBook, and a re-furbished IBM that matched the MacBook specs was $200 more. It did have a fingerprint reader, but I could care less about that. If you want biometric stuff on your laptop, then maybe the $200 price gap is worth it.
Really? How much would the specs I provided earlier cost me if I bought a mac? To repeat the specs 17 inch 1440x900 2GB ram 120GB Drive DVD Burner Fingerprint reader 256 video card TV Tuner Dual Core 1.66 I paid 1350.00 -- Grant /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
