I disagree. Apple, at least to me, represents that innovation can live in
today's computer industry, and that being different makes you ahead, not
behind of the crowd. (And yes, I thought that BEFORE Apple's current
marketing campaign.) Looks cool, but I want more information, and, as most
people go, they'll need reasons to want a $1.3K over a $600-$800 PC.
