Thats the problem with Mac's people compare them too much to PC's.
Jez Clarkson explained apple best while comparing 2 cars on Top Gear
He compared the Ferrari 575 and the Chevy Corvette ZR1, The ZR1 was a mach for the ferrari in everything including internal features, Speed etc.
He then said you could have 3 ZR1's for the price of the Ferrari.
He then finished by saying I know what I would choose and slipped into the Ferrari and drove off
Apple can charge their prices because they are Apple, HP and Co dont have their Charisma, in a recent pole in the UK on Style Icons, number 1 was : Aston Martin, 2 was iPhone and 3 was Apple.
I bet HP, never made the list.
If all those PC's company's could charge apples prices they would
I dont think its about whether or not they could charge the prices. Its about how viable to them it would be if they did.
People pay the premium on Macs mainly because of the OS if they are computer literate or the brand if they are computer illiterate. HP, Dell and all could charge a lot more than they do, but they choose not too because they have a specific market.
There is no doubt that Apple provides quality support service and their products are built to a very high standard, but for this new release of Macbooks, i don't see why i would upgrade my current Macbook to a new one.
The graphics cards are pretty irrelevant because you don't by Macs to play games imo. Its just the faster processors that would draw me and other newcomers.
All just imo btw
He does have a valid point. Why do people buy expensive watches when a Casio digital will do the job? As I said above you don't buy Apple just because of the specs.
