It would be a lot cheaper, because i was talking with a guy from the Apple store and he said the main cost was the Software.

That's not true, because they are selling Snow Leopard for less than $30 USD. The hardware is junk, and you can buy the same hardware specs on a pre-loaded windows OS PC for a fraction (like my computer was 1/3) of the cost. Therefore, it's gotta be the nice apple logo. I guess it's a trendy fashion style these days. |

Where? Can you give support of this? Almost every major business uses Windows products. The market share of Macs are BARELY above Linux, and we're not even considering the servers. You might think that it's for film production or audio recording, but those are only for small-medium scale use. I work at a movie theatre, and I have to watch all of the movies every year. Every production does not thank Apple, but rather Windows. It would be a lot cheaper, because i was talking with a guy from the Apple store and he said the main cost was the Software.

You only get a Mac if you are in the media industry.

Why would you get a Mac for media? That's... It's beyond stupid. Windows does EVERYTHING better than a Mac, besides sucking.
