Even if the Mac's sticker price is more than the peecee's (and I saw
one comment in this thread which implies it isn't, though I am familiar
with neither's price point myself), this does not necessarily make the
Mac overpriced. I've never seen an Intel-CPU Mac. But I've seen
recent PowerPC Macs, and if they stick to the same level of quality,
the Intel Mac is worth signifcantly more money than a commodity peecee
with similar paper specs.

the mac is still horribly over priced.
