Actually, no. Apple Powerbooks are better made, and when you match
feature for feature with PC laptops, you pay the same price pretty
much.
The PC manufacturers have a vast array of cheaper, less capable
systems, though.
Think you may have missed point slightly, compare brand names and
you are right but when you get to vanilla branded things then no
contest. Some PC laptops even come with integrated TV tuners, card
readers, web cams etc. For too many people they do give a rats as
long as it has a xxx GHz processor, a DVD burner and perhaps WIFI
everything else is secondary or they don't care about, except for
how much it costs them.
In fact I believe Apple to be amongst the first to offer a 100GB
7200 rpm drive in a laptop as CTO. Trust me with some thing like
VPC this is a huge advantage.
Among the first...we've had it as an option on the Gatways for a few
months now. Supplies are pretty constrained, though.
No you won't. <http://tinyurl.com/7dqto> Gone, just in time for
Apple system (I'm certain, as fanatical as Steve is about the
Apple brand, you would have never seen Intel Inside stickers on

You would prefer "Jump the Shark"? ;-P
