I think that trying to compare Macs to PCs on price is wrong. As is on performance. The G4 closer to the end of the line wasn't really competive anymore. The place to compete is on "user experience". And quite frankly, that's what Apple does. Sure it tries the specmanship business, but really they work on selling a shiny OS in a shiny box that people think is pretty cool. And they do a darn good job. I'd love to buy the box if it came with out a monitor for cheap. I don't want to pay for a G5 just to get a modern Apple desktop sans monitor.
