Out there butts? Man see first you start out being quite
reasonable then you go for the body parts...Yikes!

Look a Mac I'm afraid is to many more than the sum of it's parts.
Granted you do get all the engine parts like memory and a hard
drive and a processor and busses and cache all the wrench head
stuff like any other computer and there are those who only see
those items as to what counts. OK...I understand that but others
should try to understand that for many there is more to a
computer. The OS for instance. The software bundled with
it...and in those cases it is hard to find fault with the Macintosh
for it's OS is state of the art and many would say at this time
technologically ahead of MS and almost everyone would admit to
on SOME level it being more secure. As for the software bundled
with every Mac including the Mini well it is no stretch to say that
for many they could very well use their Mac for years to come
without having to purchase a single software title extra...cause
those programs bundles with a Mac cover a wide range of
abilities and are known to be excellent in quality and
performance.

So when I argue for the Mac I'm not arguing simply about the
nuts and bolts which by the by are not all that bad, nor am I
arguing simple the price but if I were I would say for what you
get all in all the price is very reasonable. Nor do I argue about
the look and the style still that is important to many after all if
you have the most powerful kick but engine but a rusted out or
just plain ugly body covering that engine well that may be your
thing but it's not mine. The Mac arguement is many facited it's
all about the whole widget not the individual pieces parts.
