Also, I’m not entirely clear about this report, but I read another report saying that Apple’s income from sales was up more than Microsoft.

One basic reason for that is that Mac computers are a LOT more expensive for what you get. PC prices drop, but Mac prices don’t. Yes, you get more for a buck than you did ten years ago with both systems, but Apple continues to be much more expensive for what you get.

You were saying ...

Well, as it turns out, when you actually look at it, that's not true. When you compare the systems together, same thing for same thing -- they're not more expensive...

I'll leave it to Swordmaker to provide those details on those comparisons, as he's done that several times in the past. I've seen the details, but I just don't have them at my fingertips like Swordmaker does... :-)

Give him time to notice this ping, and I'm sure he'll post it here for you...

Thanks Swordmaker...

That depends on how you define "what you get."
