Was about to make a similar comment, but he did upgrade the processor from Celeron to Core 2 Duo.

The other points are valid though, but I still believe I could price out a cheaper PC then a same-spec Apple. Not sure how wide the gap will be, I'd imagine you are correct the gap is much smaller now then before.

I'm talking about desktops though. Don't know enough about laptops to make the same comment.
