Yes, they are expensive but considering the one I'm typing on now has lasted me 4 years with almost no problems, it's worth the $$. I'm hopefull the next one will last me like this too.
The only major issue I have found since being a Mac, is that MLS does not run on anything buy Internet Explorer. As a realtor, this is a major pain. This is the main reason I just bought a new mac which will allow me to run windows and IE when I need to. My old Mac was pre-this ability.

I'm not really griping about the price of the computer or the quality, but the price of the accessories. This monitor adapter is practically nothing and it costs 30 dollars. It just seems ridiculous to me. They damn near give this kind of thing away with PCs and it is a lot more robust than the Mac trinkets.
I've got a Dell laptop for work and I could run the power cord over with a bus and I think it would still work. I nearly ran over the end of my Mac power cord with my chair today and probably would have had to replace the thing for a hundred bucks.
Bla bla bla -- doesn't anyone make knockoffs of this Mac stuff?
