Yeah, so? You can get a low spec PC or a high spec PC. A kickass gaming PC at $3000 might be a good price depending on the hardware, while on the other hand a PC for $500 might be really crappy, even at that price, and thus, a bad price.

When you pay more at Apple, you do get something from it IMO.

I only have an iPod nano and an old PowerMac G3 D: But they're both really good. I've used plenty of modern Macs, and I think they're pretty amazing. It's something completely else..

Sebbes, you're arguing apples and oranges. The same spec PC will cost more from Apple.

Yeah, but it much better build quality, an entirety and an operating system that noone else offers. You get more for your money. It's not just more money for nothing. See my point? Even if you don't agree, point still stands in my case if that's my opinion..

you seem to be arguing for my point. low price, good quality, good service - pick 2

Apple falls under the "good quality, good service"
please don't try to argue that they have low prices

You said "good prices" before.. It's not the lowest prices in the world, but IMO it's not overpriced at all. It's comparable to high end design products which cost several times more than equal products because of their design.

Well, it's my and many others opinion that you can't get anything that's as good anywhere else. And compared to most manufacturers, they only cost slightly more. So yeah, I'd say it's not overpriced.

I've built much more stable computers that look just as good.

Have never owned a dell myself, but if you buy pretty much any windows Laptop, in 4 or 5 years its worth nothing compared to what you spent on it.
With a mac, in 4 or 5 years times I hear its worth about 60%
Dell might be leaving Ireland, which would be bad.
