Apple Laptops: Good, Cheap, Fast – Pick Three

Jeff Atwood on the pricing of Apple’s MacBooks and MacBook Pros:

I cut my computing teeth on the Apple II, and to a lesser extent, the Macintosh. I can personally attest that these were incredibly expensive machines at the time. But the current crop of x86 Apple laptops are cheaper than nearly every other x86 laptop of equivalent spec. That’s amazing.
