I completely agree with your statement, but what is the alternative? Dell? Look at most PC manufacturers based in the United States and they've been completely decimated by the race to the bottom in prices. I'm not a fan of Apple's pricing but I prefer that they make a profit and continue hopefully producing decent products. I believe that Microsoft and Intel are going to face the same margin issues as the price of hardware continues to fall and manufacturers question the cost of the O/S and Intel CPUs.
