But wen I run a System Profiler on my mac, my Apple branded mouse comes up as "Logitech" for vendor on mg G5. The Pro Keyboard comes up as Mitsumi Electric for the vendor name as well. I just thought that was odd.

Actually, I doubt Apple even makes the cases. They design the cases. They design the custom parts of the computer. Then they have other companies doing the manufacturing and most of the assembly work. I think Apple might do some of the custom order upgrades themselves.blue&whiteman said:all apple really makes on their own are the casings around their products. all the parts inside everything they make are made by someone else. same as dell, gateway, compaq etc.

This is why I never really bought the "Apple hardware is better" argument from Mac-drones. They buy their HD's, CD burners, LCDs, casing, etc, from the same people that other companies like HP and Gateway do. If one part fails, it isn't because Apple is superior (even though they are ). Its because the part cocked up, not Bill Gates, Windows, or anything else you can blame.
