| Applelinks Headline News - Thursday, August 07, 2008 The Macs Are More Expensive Debate, And Why It's Ultimately Futile Posted by Charles W. Moore on 08/07 at 11:48 AM In one very important respect, the never-ending controversy over whether Macs are more expensive than PCs is futile, and that would be that it's an Apples and, well, PCs, comparison. Only Macs can (legally) run the Mac OS, and that is huge, because that is the main event with Macs for many of us, who would, and indeed have in the past, pay a substantial price premium - if not happily, at least resignedly - in order to benefit from the manifold superiorities of the Mac OS. As long as Apple won't license the Mac OS, the argument is moot as far as we're concerned http://www.applelinks.com/index.php/more/ the_macs_are_more_expensive_debate_and_why_its_ultimately_futile/ Applelinks Tech Web Reader - Thursday, August 7, 2008 Posted by Staff on 08/07 at 10:56 AM ?
