[QUOTE="Xyphus, post: 17291"] I would say supply and demand have a lot to do with it too... PCs you can get just about anywhere... You can walk into your local Wal-Mart and pick up software or hardware that will work in just about any generic PC... Hence, the glut causes prices to fall... Macs on the other hand, you have to buy from a licensed reseller, and you really don't find them on any street corner. (There is not a single one in my area.. The closest is either in Chicago Illinois, or in Indianapolis Indiana...) Other than that, there is only mail order... So, I am sure that this reflects in increased prices along with other factors... (not to imply that the quality of the MAC is lacking, just the availability...) [/QUOTE]
