My psychic powers appear to be failing me right now.

I know you're making a straw-man argument, but most people here aren't very bright, so I'll spell it out for them: if you're shopping based on price, you obviously won't get a "real" mac, you'll get a Hackintosh. Candyflip swears by them, and I have no specific reason to doubt what he's said. The original comment was that Mac users somehow "overpay" for their Macs, but I'd personally rather have the genuine article versus a knock-off, because my time is valuable, and downtime isn't really an option for me or my clients.
"Macs" are just PC hardware these days; therefore you do "overpay". I thought all Mac users knew and accepted that fact.

If you're just Windows user, then any old laptop will probably suit you, but then why would you have been in the market for a Mac in the first place? Kind of a silly argument.
You seem to believe everyone who buys a Mac does so for the same reason you do, that they have no choice. Strange.
