Mines is "The Apple Mac Pro. The greatest computer ever conceived and constructed. Only a man like Steve Jobs could create such a marvel. Yeah, right. Let's take a look at this. Let's build us a Mac Pro from Apple's official website. Let's give it the most powerful processor, RAM, HD, and graphics options available. Let's give it two quadcore CPUs at 3.0 GHz. ...Let's give it just one 750 GB HD. Let's give it 16 GB of RAM. Now let's give it a NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 512MB, Stereo 3D (2 x dual-link DVI) for the graphics. Now let's forget everything else, all the other tacked-on crap, no modem or monitor even. The Mac's final cost: $10,543.00. Now let's go to newegg and build the exact same thing. Let's give our newegg computer the exact same stuff for HD, RAM, and CPU options. Heck, let's give it ANOTHER CPU, ANOTHER graphics card, and finally let's slap on TWO cases. That's right, TWO cases, and let's make sure they're just as tough as the Mac's case, and make sure they're the most expensive cases Newegg has to offer. And let's assume you pay some guy a thousand bucks to assemble it. And let's buy both Vista AND XP while we're at it. PC final cost: $7,069.83 Dang, what should we do with that $3,473.17? Let's buy FIVE XBox 360s and while we're at it let's get some of the newest shootin` games - BioShock, Halo 3, and the VALVE Orange Box. Now what should we do with what we have left? Why not put a down payment on one of those new Maserati? Macs fail." -Anon
