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...
