Tell me, the extra 20 minutes of work you do to use a less user friendly program is worth the extra thousand dollars you pay?

You are acting like a mac is a flawless masterpiece made by gods, when it's not.

By the way PC breaks as much as a Mac, and both consist of the same components, but then again maybe to you they don't.
Instead of a Core2Duo it's a gold plated Core2Duo
Instead of a fan it has an environment friendly, never breaking, never stopping fan
Instead of a battery, it has a tiny nuclear reactor that allows the laptop to work for 6 hours straight.

You get the point.

That's awesome, because that's what mac users think their laptop is made of.

30$ for a text editor is a rip off by the way.

again stating, macs are nice, jsut overpriced. You can get all it offers for free or cheaper then it.
Also Gedit is free ;)

TextMate is 900$ if you buy it for 30 students, which makes me think it's actually even more expensive if you only buy 1 license.

Fail?
