Almost every apple product it looked at as expensive compared to other computers on the market, but you get what you pay for.Īpple, Logic, Pro-tools, OSX are industry standard. Besides that, you pay for stuff like OSX, and a general pretty design. So, if you can imagine the speed of a dual 5.4 ghz, (over 10ghz of power) im sure you can see the reason for the expense. The general rule is you can double the CPU speed and that is the PC equivalent. The reason they are so expensive is because you are not paying for just power.
