I mainly look at the laptops, specifically the Macbook Pro. Reason I look at the laptops and not the desktops, is because I feel a PC is always going to be better than a Mac Pro or iMac, all because if I feel like it I could upgrade a PC for a few hundred quid, reinstall it and it will be a lot better. With a Mac I wouldn’t be able to do this, well possibly with the Mac Pro. But the iMac this wouldn’t happen and I believe when paying £1.5k to £2k+ for a desktop this is stupid, a laptop is different.

Every time I look at the Macbook Pro’s I get put off from buying one, and that’s due to the cost! These laptops are so expensive that I couldn’t justify the cost right there and then, I mean I got a perfectly good laptop at the moment that my dad gave me, its about only about 1.5 years old, and runs Windows 7 Enterprise amazingly.

If I had a laptop that was 3 or 4 years old then maybe I would get a Macbook Pro, or if I had a large amount of cash just lying under my bed. But until that it’s going to be a while and this annoys me, why do Mac’s have to be so expensive, I mean it doesn’t cost £1.5k to make a laptop so why sell it at that price, surely if they were cheaper they would sell more and if they sold more they would clearly make up the difference?
