*chop*
just curious. how much those power book G4 cost? I
checked
apple India, there they say its around Rs.1 lakh and more.
are these really all that costly? or there is something like
lamington raod for mac where i can afford to buy one.
Anything "Apple" is best bought in the US. AFAIK Apples have very less
penetration in India just because they follow the same pricing structure
world-wide without taking PPP into account.
The amounts one pays is thus huge. Add to that taxes as a percentage and the
price becomes astronomical.
Unless of course, you want to make a style statement or are into using a
particular suite of creative applications, you can do very well without a
Apple.
Again, I doubt if you can procure Apples in a piecemeal fashion from a
hardware market; because Apple's computer hardware platform is the "IP" of
Apple, and they disuade third-party manufacturers from making mainstream
components.
