I've tried Mac. I really like the Mac software. I wanted to buy a Mac. But if I can get a similarly easy to use operating system on a $500 laptop (or $300 netbook), why am I going to spend more than $1000 (more like $1500 for the same configuration) for the alternative?
you aren't getting the same configuration in a $500 laptop as you do in a $1000 macbook.
