I have to chime in on a pretty large factual error in your article - the apple computer is NOT twice as expensive as an similarly configured dell. In fact, many times, the Dell is more expensive. ZDnet (not exactly the epitome of tech blogs, but still reputable) posted an article in Dec. of last year on this exact topic, and the Dell was over $500 more expensive: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Burnette/?p=211

There was another report, that i can't find right now, that did a similar study with a wider range of the Apple line and more PC manufacturers, and came to the result that PCs were 11% more expensive than a comprable Apple.
