		<description>I have had about 10 computers during my life. One is 10 years old and still being used for processing images by my girl firend. Two others are six and three years old. The only problem I've ever had was the need to replace a sound card, not a big deal
I have a one year-old MacPro. I'm now about to buy a top-of-the-line iMac, and the salesperson really high-pressured me by telephone to buy AppleCare. He didn't take the first 8 no's for an answer. I finally had to shout to tell him to back off with his sales pitch. This took place by a Portugese Apple salesperson working in Ireland for the French Apple store. Really! No joke.

I told him that maybe I shouldn't be buying another Mac if they are so poorly built that I will need a repair policy for after it is a year old.

Companies make lots of money on those plans. I can't believe the salesperson doesn't also make something--maybe not a direct commission, but some sort of incentive. I cannot imagine a salesperson exerting so much pressure otherwise.</description>

		<description>[quote post="11"]Couple of things need to be set straight here for the record:
1. Apples aren’t way more expensive anymore. A brand new macbook from Apple isn’t ‘overpriced’ they just don’t sell crappy bargain machines like Dell does. If you take the time to configure a Dell that is almost indentical in components to a Macbook you’ll find that the price difference is $50-100 (some components aren’t exactly equal). And thats not taking into account the need for Virus/Spyware/Etc protection you’d be stupid not to have to even take that Dell machine online (once you add in that stuff the Dell can be more expensive). The cheapest Apple laptop versus the cheapest Dell laptop isn’t really comparing apples and oranges, more like apples and last years dried out fruit.

I'm thinking about getting a macbook pro but I do realize that they are extremely overpriced, contrary to what you say here.  Dell offers their XPS 1530 with better specs (larger hard drive [320 gigs], and more ram [4 gigs standard])  WITH 3 years of services (the equivalent to applecare.  To purchase an macbook pro with the same specs would cost $1,000 USD More than the dell's 1,500 price tag.
