Cheap as Apples

Derrick Story from the Apple WWDC:

Oh, and next time someone says, "Well, I think Mac OS X is a cool operating system, but I don't really want to pay a premium price for the hardware to run it," pull this out of your back pocket.

You can buy a 2 GHz dual processor G5 that can hold up to 8 GB of memory with a Radeon 9600 Pro graphics card, 4X SuperDrive, high performance I/O, serial ATA hard drives, 133 MHz PCI slots, and full SMP to take advantage of those dual processors for $1,000 less than the equivalent Dell machine that doesn't fare as well in some of the benchmark tests.
