Trouble is most PC's are packaged really badly, the feel of a computer is as important as what's inside. Compare a Macbook Pro to almost any PC Laptop and you'll be hard pressed to find anything of the quality in design and presentation of the Mac - these are factors in productivity as a machine that is ergonomically sound is going to increase your productivity compared to a machine which feels clumsy.
