And apparently they loved the iTunes Music Store too.

It's great to see fast Macs at last. This should shut up those anti-Mac weenies.
Also, new dual 1.8 GHz:

Notice that they don't claim to be the 'fastest personal computer' anymore. And they updated their benchmarks, too.

Those are some fast macs, too bad most people cant afford them.
Laukev7:
Yeah, because dual Xeon and Athlon 64 workstations are such affordable machines.
Compare the price of a Dell Precision 650 with the Powermac G5, with approximately matched features. And I was generous. I chose the Precision 650 because it was one of the machines against which Apple tested the G5.

My comparisons are probably not 100% accurate, but it still shows how computers at that range of performance are quite expensive machines, whether it's a PC or a Mac.

This is odd. Where I come from, computers over all are very dear in deed. Macs are generally cheaper, however, than other PCs. :eek: :eek:
