The laptops are a little more expensive, but you get Mac OS, which is surprisngly more stable than anything Windows has ever, or will ever, develope. You're paying for, in Mac OS, features and abilities that might get to PCs in 5-10 years. You're also paying for an OS that is litterally germ free: there are no known viruses for Mac OS X. My computer, in the 3+ years that I've had it, has never frozen once. I've not had programs quit. I've not had to restart. I'm not saying that Windows does this on all of the PC x86 machines, but you do have to spend a lot and probably customize (break the thing open and tinker with) a PC to make it anywhere near as stable as a Mac. Also, Mac doesn't give you free trials of their software like Windows. If it's on your computer when you buy it, you have it for life. That's gotta be worth a few hundred bucks.
Also, they're pretty cool.
