heh, have you priced an iPod?
Not to disparage Apple, but to suggest they don't milk their customers
as much as the next guy is just plain silly.
It's a rare thing with computer companies. The more and
more we buy at work in x86-land (Dell, etc.), the crappier and crappier it
gets, as Dell tries harder and harder to squeeze more cash per unit.
That has more to do with the competition in the x86 market than it does
with the hardware. If you are overpriced by $10 in the x86 market, you lose.
Apple, well, they don't have that problem, since they are (effectively)
the only players in the PowerPC market.
