But yeah, they used to make their own stuff.
It's absolutely the same.
http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/specs.html
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M - Same as NVIDIA GeForce 9400M for PC.
2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (Apple didn't even give the series number, but I found that processor) - Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E7300 (Same frequency, FSB speed and amount of cache) http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=36463
I feel sorry for the unfortunate people who fell into Apples trap and bought a mac. The only good thing I can say about it, is that it has a button which completely dims the screen, which is quite useful if you are trying to save as much power as you can. I'm pretty sure other laptops have that function, but mine doesn't, so it's worth mentioning.
I could go on but it's a waste of time. Everything apple says about how you can't use non-apple hardware is simply not true. Their hardware is no different from the hardware an IBM, Sony or Dell laptop has. All apple has is a good ad campaign and an overpriced OS.
