Apple's are for people who want to think they're special.

Yeah, you are special. It takes a special kind of dumbass to pay $500-1000 extra for an Apple with half the compatibility of a PC.

 

I bought my Mac Book Pro 17" 2.5 years ago.

I wanted a laptop that was an inch thick, metal, 1680x1080 screen, dual core, under 7 pounds, built in webcam, back light keyboard, 802.11g, 256 meg video card, and over 4 hours of batter life.

Can you show me the PC I should have bought that's $500-$1000 less then the $2900 I spent? Can you show me one at all that was around 2.5 years ago? Can you show me one today?

I will save you some time (because I looked). There was none. The closest was a Dell, and it was bigger, heavier, slower, and cost a hell of a lot more.
