I agree.  The premium payed for Macs is not reflected in the actual
hardware used.  I just priced out a loaded Dell Latitude E6400, which
fully loaded is the same price as the starter Macbook.  The Dell is
using a better CPU, double the RAM, a fast hard drive (7200 RPM laptop
drive) etc.  It just doesn't make sense unless you actually care about
the solid aluminum body :)
