Saying macs are expensive and you could build a chesper pc is like saying a Ferrari is expensive I could just build a fast car myself for less.
sure maybe that guy who is an expert mechanic can build a car and make it as fast as a Ferrari but the chances are it's not going to be as visually pleasing and it's going to take him a lot of time which most normal people who have money just go by the Ferrari which also happens to come with a logo saying Ferrari or a repair shop they can drop off repairs or support they call for help.
I know I can build PCs for a little bit cheaper but at the end of the day if I have to have my staff to do it it's just easier to buy a mac.
That said if I need a really fast machine im building a pc as a mac would cost a lot amd that savimg of $6k is worth it but not a few hundred on $3k machine.
But yea its also preferance .....but oh year in can run windows on my macs too when I need both os which I often do.
Its hard for any sane person to deny that macs are expemsive but its also hard to deny they are the best out of the Box computer on the market.

Not really. An expert car mechanic cannot realistically build a Ferrarai quality car from scratch - ok maybe he can, but it would be a years long project. On the other hand I'm no computer wiz (or any type of other wiz for that matter) and I can build out a great PC in a couple of hours. Picked up an i7 processor, high-end video card, motherbard, 16gb ram, dual drives (ssd and 1T hd), case, 23in flat panel and Windows 8 OEM for just under $1,100 - after rebates at MicroCenter in Newark. I have a great machine that burns thru video editing - and again - I'm no computer wiz. Just followed the instructions and watched a couple of YouTube videos.
