It is possible to customize a laptop with all the those features like Wireless N, Bluetooth etc. The cost is STILL significantly lower than a MacBook. (price it out for yourself)

I really wanted to give Mac a try but the cheapest 15″ is 1700.00$. And these “high to mid-range” parts you speak of are just laughable. The 1700.00$ MacBook would probably do OK with basic games but a lot of the high demand games would likely be unplayable. I can find a 1K laptop that would run circles around a MacBook. A 1700$ hp or dell laptop would be capable of running the world.

For 1700$ I better get what I pay for…and I just dont’ feel that Apple can fit my needs.

TOSHIBA Satellite L505D-S5986 NoteBook AMD Athlon II M300(2.0GHz) 15.6″ 3GB Memory 250GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi ATI Radeon 4100 –

Retail $449.99

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834114717

How much is a MacBook? 999.99
How much RAM does a MacBook come with? 2GB
What size display does MacBook have? 13″

So more RAM, larger screen, and LESS than half the price.

Company’s like Dell and HP cut features to get that lower price knowing that individuals like NutMotion will not bother to compare actual features. When you look at Apple, there cost is really that way because they don’t offer systems with cut features.. You can’t buy an apple with a Wireless G card.. They all have Wireless N, Bluetooth 2.1, Mid to high end video, latest in firewire, etc.

Their main downfall is that lack of customization gives the wrong impression.. heh.. It seems like they are their own worst enemy when it comes to perception of their systems and price. Their notebooks are among the thinnest in the industry while offering the most features for their size.

HP offers an thin Aluminum line too, did you know that? But it’s price is a good $200-400 MORE than apple. Chew on that fact. Lol

Check it out,, it’s called HP’s ENVY line of notebooks.

As to the comments on price. I priced out a 13.3 HP about 3 months ago customizing it to have about the same hardware (CPU, MEMORY, HDD, VIDEO, ETC).. and was very supprised to see that the price difference was no where near double.. infact. they were dead even..

So be careful when you Assume!.. :) I think HP realized that and started coming out with a few coupons and discounts.

Bought my first Macbook Pro that week for $999(Apple Referb). After going through 3 HP’s and a Dell, using this for 3+ months, will never go back. Mac OS X + VMware Fusion for any windows Apps I might need is freakin awesome. :P

Apple scored also about twice the price right?
