Apple stick with their generally high spec but limited range all built with components known to definitely operate reliably within the limits required by OS X . I wonder if the Apple integration and Apple reliability could be replicated by any PC manufacturer that took the trouble (or the risk) to produce a machine with the specs required to run XP reliably and easily match the Apple hardware/software experience?
ie Do Dell have access to the inner workings of XP and know it as well as Apple know OSX - the big difference being that dell as hardware manufacturers choose to produce cheapo hardware in their range ( so the requirements of XP arent necessarily met long term and that is where the reliability problems running XP arise)
Boxx PC computer goes beyond what support and product quality Apple or Dell offers. Their specialty is the VFX market and they are very well known in the VFX industry. Infact, you can buy 3ds max, Maya, XSI and Lightwave 3d pre-installed in their system.
