  Well, other people seem to disagree with that. One example:

http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&taxonomyName=macintosh_os&articleId=9023959&taxonomyId=123&intsrc=kc_feat

  MacBook pro: $2799.
  Dell laptop with equivalent specs: $3459.
  A slightly less powerful Vaio laptop: $3150.

  iMac desktop computer (20-inch LCD): $1500.
  A comparable Vaio desktop computer (19-inch LCD): $1800.
