PC's are cheaper due mainly to competition. It is true if you go out and
buy a PC from some place like Best Buy, there are quite a few cheap parts.
They do put some quality parts in them, but the only way to get a high
quality PC is to build it yourself.

The main reason you can't build your own mac is because of Steve Jobs. He
wishes to keep Mac a closed achitechture, so with him in charge we'll
probably see all macs become more like the iMac.

I don't mean to be anti-mac or anything ( I use a Plus for e-mail and
newsgroup reading) just giving my view.
