You can get all that from Dell for $2k or you can build even a better system yourself. Not to mention with a PC you will never have a $500 logic board go bad that seems to be the first thing the Apple Store tries to sell you when your iMac goes kaput.

Lets not also forget how much more it costs to get bigger HD's or more ram from the Apple store.. Even they know their customers are stupid trendy little fucks..
