Actually, Macs and PCs are the same price. The difference is that Apple has much fewer options to b uy less and spend less while PC manufacturers have several systems that give you less thus allowing you to spend less.
That doesn't make PCs less expensive though it does make them more flexable

Macs are actually priced right so Apple can make a profit. PC's are underpriced due to the tough competition. As a result the screwdriver shop makes $0 on the sale of the PC and actually makes money on upgrades, installs of the upgrades, repairs, etc... Big box vendors such as Dell, HP, etc... make their profit on mass volume.
So Macs are actually priced correctly by comparison.
