    For me it boils down to lifestyle. I've used a Mac for about 16 years now (since my high school word processing class) and it's just been a standard in my life. I've use PCs on and off for about 8 years, and my personal preference has swayed Mac. I don't really feel that they're that expensive, considering that the G3 (the thing had a 4GHard drive) and monitor I bought when I first got out of college cost me $2500 total, just a few months ago I bought a refurb iMac for $1500. I'm more than happy.
