Just a comment about the argument that Macs hold their value. While yes that's true couldn't the PC user buy 2 or even three top of the line computer's that would last them atleast 10 - 15 years for the same price of one mac?

I don't buy that argument in the first place. Out of all the PCs I've had the one with the shortest life was 5 years. You just need to buy components or the whole PC from reputable brands, which isn't hard and doesn't cost much more than buying a worse quality product, in a lot of cases it doesn't even have an impact on price. 

Agree with this totally. Most of my PCs in the past have lasted 5+ years. I bought my previous PC in January 2005 and only built my new one in November of last year. Fact is, I could have kept using that PC too if I didn't game on my PC. Actually, even with my gaming I could probably have continued to game for another year or two. If you spent as much money as a top of the range Mac costs on a PC, you could be playing the games on it for 10+ years.
