It is overpriced.  I built the same damn thing with opterons, 500 gig harddrive, 4 gig of ram, nvidia 7800GTX, two optical drives, and a 19 inch display for the same price.

Nah, its not the same. The shit you built won't run Mac OS (very easily). I've lost all fatih in Microsoft. I've had no problems with Mac OS (and yes, I use my computer for more than web browsing and word processing, I use it for professional uses and more).

nice job, except I didnt mention a damn thing about OS's.  Especially since I hate the living hellout of MS.

Plus, OS X tiger is priced at $129, does that justify the price discrepancy between the computer I built and a comparable outfitted Mac Pro (which is much more than $129?

Lifes a bitch.  If it were a slut it'd be too easy.

Windows XP doesn't suck that much, I almost never have problems from it. Linux doesn't suck either, I use it quite a bit too. Mac fanatics need to quit labeling PCs as "windows-only" and quit pretending XP is identical to 95/98/ME.

Lol-able!

Basically take everything in that post and switch it completely.

In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed.

You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.

Except for the linux part.  They've had stuff for years that apple and microsoft have recently started/are in the process of implementing.  Assuming, of course, Pc = windows, because god forbid you run something other than windows on pc hardware.
