You don't have to pay for OS upgrades. Yes Apple puts out an entirely new OS every three years or so, but the average price for OSX has always hovered around $100. Microsoft has a tendancy to put out flawed and outdated OS's every 5-8 years, and a full version of Vista will run you $400.

Yes the Mac costs more because it's just better. Plain and simple.
