Both Apple and Dell are guilty of using misleading prices. For example, Apple gives the price of the low-end G5 as "$1999", and the high-end G5 as "$2999". In other words, they have subtracted $1 from a $3000 computer to make it seem cheaper, which is absolutely ridiculous. This demonstrates that both Apple and Dell are willing to mislead people when stating their prices.

I guess I can't buy an Apple OR a Dell now. I can't believe they would deliberately mislead consumers like that. I feel so... victimized!

The only way the clown in that article can defend his paragraph there would be if the last thing he had personally purchased was a box of puffed rice during the Depression. Jesus.

Someone please indulge a question from someone who has not used or had access to a Macintosh in six years: Will all applications currently available for OS X and the G4 work on a G5? (I ask, as Intel and AMD are putting together CPUs that would still be able to run a copy of Zork from 1980 and it is my understanding that Apple has not particularly cared about that level of backwards compatibility over the last twenty years.)
