This is the reason why Windows PCs are pricier than Macs.

Even if the sentiment of this article has some truth to it; you end up looking silly with typos like that.

I didn't point it out, but I too was wondering if that line was a typo.

I have always argued that Macs (at least from when I heavily compared them to PCs from '02 to '06) were in fact cheaper or comparable when you did a side-by-side comparison including software. And, yes, it was only cheaper if that software was relevant to the purchaser.

Anyway...

Where did you do your price shopping? I wasn't aware Monster Cable sold PCs as well as overpriced cables.

my statement was more directed to "apple's goal is to make money, not be your friend" then to apple's are more expensive.

Ah, yes, it should be: "This is the reason Macs are prickier than Windows PCs." (Jokes a fanboi.)
