What I best remember apple for is proprietary hardware that cost 70-250% more
than comparable PC hardware. I always laughed inwardly when helping a mac
owning friend replace some common component like a modem that cost $120
instead of $15, or a motherboard that was $600 instead of $60.

I've considered apple a few times, but could never get past the
amazing prices.
