[QUOTE="technologist, post: 247815, member: 4134"] I don't agree. I don't think that Mac OS X is less demanding than XP; if anything, it needs more memory and a better graphics chip to perform at the same level. A MacBook is more expensive than a Dell or HP notebook with the same specs because Apple thinks it has "added value." Mac OS X, the iLife applications, the iSight camera, and the remote control aren't typical PC features. Mac OS X is, in my opinion, a more reliable and powerful OS than WinXP, and I feel that alone justifies the cost of the hardware to run it. Some people get a kick out of iLife, or the way it looks on their desks. Others look at the specs and ignore the intangibles. Each person should based on whatever you feel is important in a PC.
