MacOSXonPC.com believes that people shouldn't pay such high prices for Apple computer hardware with such low hardware specifications, when you are able to take advantage of the stability and ease of use of the Mac OS X operating system with affordable and powerful PC hardware.

A similar specification from Apple for a Mac Pro desktop starts at $2499 on the Apple website.
