Have you ever looked at an Apple motherboard, by any chance? Where do you suppose all of those transistors, resistors, DIMMs, chips, and other components come from? [Hint: It ain't the U.S.]

Spoken like a Bush2000...

Of COURSE the mnobo is made abroad...I conceded as much on a prior post.

For what it is worth, so does the entire WINTEL Space...and they [Wintel] outsource everything else, whereas Apple and Pixar don't!!!

Spend $400 and buy a Wintel...and 2 BILLION competitors [India and China alone], or spend $2,500 for an Apple, and NEVER have to ask "Want Curry with that???

ROTFLMAO!!!

Phew, I'm glad you recognize this.

If you're curry-phobic then, yes, this would be an important option. But, since the average consumer is trying to strike the best possible bargain for their hard-earned dollar, you know what's going to win in the end.
