It use to be you couldn't even use one of the best for games until recently when a few companies such as EVGA started making mac versions for top of line cards. Before that the best you could put in a mac was some two to three year old nVidia card. I could go on...

Truth is you're paying for the apple logo and that's it. Hell anandtech and dailytech rip on apple all the time for being overpriced and those sites are run by the biggest dorks on this planet.

There's many other reasons why macs are just hyped up BS. They run advertisements that hint you don't need a antivirus but yet apple has came out and said you better use one. Hell now there's a new hack to record keystrokes and more on macs because they can't even make a keyboard right.
