We all appreciate the high end standard of Maclintosh computer since it was born. Everyone use a Mac are either professional or crazy fanboy. Since Apple product combine both hardware and software design in one perfect system.

I was considering Lenovo and Apple before. But I brought Apple MacBook. I like it a lot. And I am glad I made this decision. By the way, open you eyes, Lenovo's PCs are actually more expensive than Apple's. Every company needs profit. That's what business is. Think about what you need and what you want before you made a choice. Pick the price you would like to pay for that, then chances are bigger that you won't regret later.

I like. Very much.

As someone has already noted, Apple make products that impress, or at least they try. That is why they are totally worth the extra money.

so with these new Mac's coming out, are we going to see a bigger drop in prices in the older models, or are they still going to over price them, even though there is bigger and better ones?

Dual GPUs in the MBP (9800M variant in an SLI configuration maybe)? I'm curious as to the rational for this. That isn't going to really help battery-life nor cooling… wouldn't a single 9800M-GTX be plenty?

Quote – ex ped: He’s taken seriously for his Apple sources, not for his familiarity with Sony and Lenova machines.

Philip – how familiar are you with Lenovo? I think Lenova is a dessert topping.

ex ped: Heh. That's a typo I think I'll let stand.

Market share is more important than profit margin in the long term. Is it better to sell 100 million MacBooks or 500 million MacBooks? In order to sell the 500 million MacBooks, you have to lower prices by $100-300 and you would still get a high profit margin with more loyal customers. What would be your business decision? Lowering prices is the best solution.

jt from ny ny:

Apple maintains a very high product standard, something that I would say most mac users understand. I am more than willing to pay a little extra for a product that works a lot better.
