Perhaps you haven't priced hardware in the last year or two. Slower RAM actually costs significantly more than newer faster units. But Intel processors using slower older units can be less expensive and this may not be a big turn-off to typical Apple customers, but it won't gain converts who are hardware savvy. Again, this reverses Apple's primary marketing thrust ; they migrated to Intel to provide cost effective high-speed mainstream CPUs.
