PowerPC was no longer able to keep up with Intel, so Apple switched.

This hasn't been the case for years. Remember that performance-wise, Macs are about on par with Alienware and higher end PCs, so you have to compare them as such. Apple just doesn't really have a bottom of the barrel. You won't find a $299 Mac, but you also won't find a Mac that's worth as little as $299.

Macs are the best Windows machines on the market. One of my best friends has XP running on his MacBook Pro right now as I'm chatting with him on AIM.
