The Case For a Mac Netbook
Technologizer —
... . With last week’s announcements, Apple released a new MacBook that, at $1299, is $200 more than the starting price for the MacBook it supercedes. But it also kept the old-style white MacBook on the market at a new low price: $999. The new MacBook is, quite clearly, a $1299 product: It’s got a fancy aluminum case, an LED screen, more advanced graphics, and other features that suggest that Apple couldn’t slash the price to $999 any time soon even if Steve Jobs went through some sort of bizarre epiphany and became a price-cutting madman. So the $999 MacBook makes sense: It ...
Microsoft: New Macs Are Pricey! And Deceptive! And Unfair! Even…Dictatorial!

... that did arrive and Windows laptops. Shocker: The company still thinks Macs are overpriced. Even more overpriced than they were, given that the new MacBook starts at $1299, $200 more than the $1099 price that the old-style one had gone for. (The old white MacBook remains on the market, at a new price of $999.) This new Microsoft missive involves less fancy math: It has a couple of relatively straightforward charts that compare Mac laptops to cheaper Windows-based options. (Unlike my recent piece , it doesn’t attempt to compare machines that are as similar as possible, but ...

Please, PC Makers: Don’t Screw Up Windows 7

... security products less of a system-sapping troublemaker.) Right now, the single biggest reason to choose a Mac over a PC is that OS X is simply far less of a hassle to use out of the box. Lots of folks are willing to pay a premium for the better experience . If Microsoft and PC manufacturers made a concerted effort, they could change the game pretty quickly. Windows 7 could be a sizable leap in the right direction, but I’ll remain a worried skeptic until Windows 7 machines start to ship…

... DRM, usually for a lower price. (Footnote: You can buy Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” a la carte at iTunes; Amazon makes you buy the entire album.) Well, wait a minute, you might be saying: Maybe Apple’s trademark integration of software, hardware, and service makes its experience so slick that Amazon is weak in comparison, despite its lack of copy protection and lower price. Maybe what we have here, in other words, is a musical equivalent of the computer wars, in which Apple manages to sell plenty of computers at a high price because they’re so much nicer than cheapo Windows ...

Two Things About the Apple Tax: It Doesn’t Just Apply to Apples, and It Isn’t a Tax

... Lastly, Microsoft’s price comparisons are all about specs. (I’ve taken a similar approach in the multiple PC/Mac price comparisons I’ve written.) But the biggest differences between PCs and Macs has nothing to do with hardware–it is, of course, the operating systems the two platforms run. I suspect that if you talk to virtually any happy Mac user, he or she will mention OS X first, will say that it lets him or her get more stuff done in less time than Windows, and will strongly feel that it’s worth paying more to get a computer that runs it. Like I said, some price premiums ...
