[QUOTE="shfle, post: 717301, member: 42208"] The base model is half the price (It comes with a bottom of the line Celeron Processor, which is next to useless for video editing) but all I am saying is that when you customise the parts on Dell's site to the nearest equivalent to the Macbook then the price difference is much less. On the UK site the base model Macbook is £699, the Inspiron, when configured to the nearest to this spec wise, is £538. If the base model is adequate to your needs then that's perfectly fine, though if this is the case then you must have money to burn forking out on a MBP:) . I apologise if I came across as having a go, this wasn't my intention. I merely wished to point out that you are not comparing like for like and that this may mislead the OP, who is wondering why there are such difference in prices. [/QUOTE]
