Who is better by you ?

Apple is candy wrapper, and I do not mean that badly. I wear Ferragamo shoes too.

i dunno, i think it goes a bit beyond just making the things look fancy.. the unibody design of their laptops can't be beat.. literally, take a solid chunk of aluminum and carve out the innards. they're not just candy wrapped, they're light and durable with attention to detail candy wrappings
i honestly think if you walked in your honolulu apple store(s) and picked one up that you'd be impressed with the design..
[wether or not you'd like OSX, well, that's a different story ]

and hey, you even get a little feel good music/soft voice type of description of the manufacturing process!

[point being, yes, you are paying a bit more but you're not paying solely for the boutique factor.. there's some nice engineering/design thrown in there as well]
