*sigh* Here we go again... You are not comparing like with like. As Zaphod points out, Apple design/construction is far superior to Dell and that's just one reason for any price differential. More to the point, if you really do spec out the Dell identically, you'll find that $1,000 shrinks dramatically. Last time I spec'd out truly comparable systems from Apple and Dell, Apple was $800 *cheaper*... -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion is delivering applications solutions at at top companies around the world in government.
