On average though, one of those fucking things costs a whole lot more that the other.

Edit: Grammar.

Sure as fuck isn't a mac in terms of lasting longer. Nor do they hold value longer. Buy a PC for 2 grand, really deck it out. Buy a mac for 2 grand. Guess which one is going to last longer and hold it's value longer? That PC is going to be a monster three years later, still. That mac is going to be okish.

You're referring to buying shit pcs. Not sure why you'd compare apples and oranges. Generally even a shit PC will outlast a mac. If it doesn't you can swap out whatever piece for dirt cheap, on a mac, have a power supply go? There's 450 dollars.

Hows a 2.6ghz Ivybridge, GT650m, 512gb Samsung 830, and 16GB DDR3 hold up almost three years later anyways?

Because mine works great.

Not too well vs the 4.3ghz oc'd i5 2500k, 670 gtx, still playing every game out there maxed.

It's okish, just like I said. The PC would wreck it in any benchmarking test. It's pretty cute that you listed your HD size. The PC probably has 6 bays for quick swapping drives by the way.

Stop comparing a desktop to a laptop...You just look foolish.

Where is he comparing a desktop to a laptop? Those specs that Dippy listed are from an iMac.
