So, to save 100$ on your operating system, you spent an extra 300$ on a computer?

An extra $300 knowing that all computer is fully supported out of the box without the need to resorting to downloading dodgy third party drivers - I'd say the $300 one pays is a small price to pay to save ones sanity. You may like to play, "find the driver" but most of us who own Mac's want to either do more important things, like spend time with the family or knuckle down and get some work done.

I'm not saying macs aren't worth the money, I am saying that spending an extra 300 to avoid spending an extra 100 seems kind of bizarre to me.
