I do think it's spyware but I didn't want to sound kooky |

Yeah. I don't like that. It might scare more people away. Unless that's your goal...then continue on and so forth.

Scribble, if your using a mac...like me...then you're probably using Safari and have the pop-up blocker enabled. Also, the odds are you wouldn't get the download window thingy that windows users get. Yes, we are superior, bow to us!  |

Apple Forever (although you are right abe, windows comp. are cheaper cuz they sell way more and hence the volume discounts)

I don't know about that...If you get an e-machine or something like that your going to pay less. But a pc that has the same features usually is just as expensive or a little more/less. Those G5 desktop mothers though, they're absurdly expensive.

Last summer I picked all the components of my PC and had it put together at the shop where I bought them. It was $900, not including monitor. CHEAP. Even if I had put a monitor in the pack it would have been about $11-$1200. At the time it had pretty top end pieces. My friend had a G4. He was looking for RAM. Our systems at the time used the exact same RAM (PC133). At my PC shop it was $45 for a 256mg strip. Across the street at his Mac shop it was $120 for the same thing So in some instances I think its more than just volume sales that dictate higher Mac prices. Ruckass |

Sorry to cause trouble by not explaining myself I live in an area where PC stuff is cheap(Sillycon Valley) I just walking in the store an bought 512 ram for $59 and a 160GB HD for $59. Mac stuff has always been high here because if you do graphics you have no choice but to go Mac. I just wish all the scooter stuff was made here, maybe one day it will  |

My job that pays for scooter fun is in advertising It seems like all scooter people have a real job that funnels money into the real passion. I am one of them |

My dad can reimburse a new comp. through work every year so this year he got a Mac G5 duel 2.0Ghz with a 23" HD Widescreen/Flatscreen. His total was something crazy like 8000$. Macs high end machines are a pretty penny. Every year he passes on his old computer to one of his kids for free. He gave me one of the G4 cubes with a 17" flatscreen. If I had to buy my own machine then, even though i love macs, i might be swayed by a sweet price.
