When I was looking at windows laptops to have something comparable with more ram (usually in the 12-16 DDR2 Category) it was around 1,200 from HP, Lenovo, Toshiba, and Dell. And they all were made from crappy plastic unlike the Mac being a complete Aluminium Frame and body
The original reason why I got a Mac Book was because I was planning to be a graphic design major but since then my plans have changed and I am now in the IT and In all honestly everything Mac is a nightmare to work with. Completely locked down and uses some of the most unefficient forms of technology for a large volume RAID. That is why I say I will most likely not purchase a Mac Book again just something like the Mac Mini which is somewhat cheap (Still overpriced for its specs) to continue to stay up to date to see the changes they make in case I ever need to service one for a user.

Samsung Series 7. All aluminum. Better specs, 40% cheaper. Not really "almost" the same when you're talking 1/3+ more expensive.
