Now these specs are kinda overkill for what i need, but you get the point
Now do you really think that Mac OS X is worth this type of differnce
Is there anybody who is going to defend mac in this one
I love Mac OS X
I wish that i could install it on my computer
But the hardware is ridilcusly overpriced
And you dont get what you pay for
