[QUOTE="James, post: 74718, member: 7582"] For the simple reason they are more expensive than compairable pc systems. To get a pc that aprox equals say a iMac G5 you would be paying about $1200 to $1500, the iMac G5 with 20" runs about $1800. A P4 3.6 can run around $1800 to $2000 where as a Power Mac G5 runs around $2500. Ya, Macs are a bit more expensive, but they are worth it...I would pay $500 extra any day to run a smooth powerful system like OS X over that cludge they call Winders XP with all its related problems, most of which doesn't happen with the Mac. My blood pressure has dropped 30 points since ridding myself of Winders.... [/QUOTE]
