Meh, lots of people prefer Macs for whatever reason and if you use your computer a lot, it's worth spending a bit more for something you enjoy using. That said

Meh, lots of people prefer Macs for whatever reason and if you use your computer a lot, it's worth spending a bit more for something you enjoy using.
That said, my current monitor is a great example of the "Apple Tax". It's a 27" IPS monitor (2560x1440) with the exact same spec as the Apple Cinema Display. Why the same spec? Because the screen in it is exactly the same. It cost me £450, whereas the Cinema Display costs around £900.
Granted, the cinema display has better audio and a nicer case - is it worth £450 extra? I'm sure some would say so however I like to point this out to people when they claim that Apple products are worth the extra money due to the quality of the screen, etc. There is some truth in that, yet the Apple logo on the back definitely adds quite a bit.
