But that's no a real good point. You then have several boat anchors (ie old 
hardware) around, plus you have all the migration problems of getting your old 
files and software to new machines.

So if I spend $999 to get a MacBook, I could have gotten 2 1/2 $300 special 
windows computers? That is "several"? Are you expecting them to die every other 
year. I see that they only offer 1 year warranty on them. For like another $100 
I can bump Applecare up to 3 years. 

Yikes.......no thanks. I don't want a machine crapping out on me ever two years 
or so. Do you think the same way with cars? Houses? Instruments?
