But... I still want a Mac. hehe
I was following your predicament, but this logic doesn't float - your are comparing a brand machine with a BYO. That is not fair, since Apple is a hardware company, not a software company, so allowing OS X to run on any BYO PC would be corporate suicide. If you like OS X, you have to buy a Mac. If you like Apple Macs, then of course you buy a Mac. You can't compare prices on an Apple PC with a BYO PC. Just like you cna't compare a Dell PC with the cost of a BYO PC.
