[quote][i]Originally posted by DaveyLC[/i] I run Mac's because if you compare like for like gear the price difference is marginal but with the Mac you actually have re-sale value which in-turn cancels out any price difference.[/quote] Massively depends on what Mac you're purchasing, ie - a Mac Pro (exclude packaging/form-factor of the unit) is ludicrously expensive as a workstation considering the hardware; but as you say, it's marginal when comparing to a bottom end iMac. And you're right that you have re-sale value but this likely to slightly decrease over time considering you're (typically) able to upgrade a PC which you can't easily, if at all, do with Macs now.
