I dont really see how network architecture holds any weight in this discussion. I read a few other replies I dont really get either, I dont have to run virus scans or malware scans because I only go to trusted sites and I dont open attachments from strangers in emails..... that sorta like complaining you have to take valtrex because you like to have sexy with slutty women and not wear a rubber.

In the end it is only OSX that makes the difference. Nothing else. Unless you buy a computer not to work on but to show off.

That's really a little absurd. You could say the same thing about a car or a sofa. Unless you buy a car not to drive, but to show off, unless you buy a sofa not to sit on, but to show off, it shouldn't matter what they look like. Why would I buy a nice looking desk and lamp, nice shelving, paint the walls, buy nice wall hangings, buy nice frames for family photos, etc., and then not care what my computer looked like? It's going to be sitting in plain sight among the rest of the stuff.

I see you didnt click on my example above from Dell. The hardware specs are exactly the same. On the dell I even opted for the specially colored case, and full office suite (though OpenOffice is what I would use). Any premade system will work when you turn it on, and the warranty from Dell is the same as it is from Apple.
I have also never run a malware or virus scan on my PCs since like 2001, and not had any problems, even with all my questionable surfing practices you should still easily be able to sniff out the good sites from the dishonest.

Because that is furniture. A computer is like a Makita screwdriver, a Festo sawing table, a sewing machine or a Japanese sharp sushi-knife. Men has to earn money with it. Today Apple forgot that group and focusses solely on the computer-as-furniture buyers. Back in the G4 and before era, they new they needed the professionals for their profit.

Is it a forgone conclusion that home built-PCs are generally considered unattractive?? Personally I prefer the all black aluminum cases to any brightly colored apple offering.
Its not like you arent going to buy a case when you build your own PC, and a major component of your case selection I would guess would be look and decor.
