4k macs are not consumer level.
Do you see carpenters complaining about $100 wrenches? Id never buy one, but a carpenter would.
Buy MAC for a reason.

You can afford $500 programs (Adobe) but you cant run the software on a machine that costs 4k? I have 3k programs dude.
Hardware is what you pay for, and the main reason a dual g4 costs what it does... its not consumer level. Nor is the price.
My buddy has an Avid system which is basically a Macintosh dual g with AVID video software and other shit, the whole system came to 40k, you gonna tell me or him he paid too much?
He edits film and makes thousands of bucks a project, the 40k was in investment.
Most people buy computers to surf the internet, sure get a pc, you wanna sit around and play solitaire, get a pc.
In every recording studio I have ever been in the audio is done on Mac, 90+% of your games are made on a mac, and for sure 99.99% of all CD covers are done on a mac... and those guys all paid 4k a machine, ask yourself why?
My friend just came home with a Macintosh monitor that costs over 1k, he has 2 of them, dual 21inch monitors, ask yourself why? because he can, and its fucking nice.
Some people like better things man, its really just a machine.
