Implying repos are the only way to get software on common free OSes and that OS X is not also UNIX.

You could just buy a Mac mini or even just the disc and build a hackintosh but that is not the point of this thread.

... pointless to argue but here it goes: you don't get a high quality display - you get a decent quality display. so even if it is an "and" that point simply does not belong in the "package". if you get the thing in better quality for the same price outside the package it can not be an argument for the package.
there is no such thing as equal weighting - you either put more weight into a neat looking (not my opinion) design and get an iMac or you put more weight into having a high quality display and go the display+selfbuild road.
you cannot argue that the display is of high quality because it's in a unibody -> a unibody is what "they" want -> "they" want a iMac because it has a display of high quality. that's circular logic.

I agree there is no point. You think it's only decent, I think it's very good.
