If I am not mistaken once dust settles on a Mac, it turns to white gold, effectively quadrupling it's value. Because of the risk of damaging the Mac, this naturally occuring phenomena is not exploited so you cannot use the white gold flakes of dust to settle your payment plan for the Mac.

So don't go uhhh... ahhh... ouch! when seeing the price tag. For a PC user this price tag is a joke in a bad way, for a Mac user this price tag is also a joke, but in a good way. They are used to getting ripped off. For them is... wake up, take a shower, have breakfast, get ripped off, get ripped off, get ripped off, get ripped off... ... ..., go to sleep. It's a way of life.

Please try to grow up and stop insulting people.

If your MBP was that great and completely satisfied you, there wouldn't be two other PCs in your system details. If your purchase of the MBP was a good investment you wouldn't go around insulting people about it. Deep down, in your subconscious mind you know the truth... Everybody buys an Apple to up their social status, to join "the club". It's like a mid life crisis, when you buy a Porsche, hoping to get laid more often.

You pay for the "privilege" to be an owner and not for the "value".

The GTX card is identical to the PC version, just has a different device id# in the bios, different decals and a shiny new apple-esque black box. They don't have to make more or less to justify the price tag.

come on guys! tbh i had never seen/touched/played with a mac until i had to use one at an old place i use to work, i can tell you this...... they are brilliant to work with and i actualy had fun using one

tbh apple isnt all that bad, atleast apple would never make a mistake of making an operating system like vista and are loyal to their customers!

Wow Mac users can do some extreme gaming now. :rolleyes:

That's a lot of money just for a different version of a video card.
