Well, one of the attractions of Macs is that they look pretty smexy. Not saying there aren't other computers that are, but Apple has a nice aesthetic sense. And there are a lot of little things that are nice, but you don't notice until you try to use them on another computer.

I'm still switching back to PC, though, Macs really are quite pricey.

So you're saying

looks better than this for example?

This costs 49.00 on the apple store!!!

And it has the same features as some generic 5 dollar mouse and looks twice as retarded

This is something I would consider good looking and actually worth the money

I'm usually one of the dissentig voices when I say this, but I think the GUI in OS X looks pretty horrible, and for me it works even worse then it looks.  Most of it strikes me as eye-candy just for the sake of eye-candy, with little consideration for actual function.  It's the one system that even though I know how to use it, I just get angry every time I have to use it for some reason or another.  It doesn't work at all for my way of doing work, and I'm pretty sure if I won/were gifted a brand new Mac, the first thing I'd be inclined to do is format the drive and install something that works a bit more sanely for me.

Different people have different tastes, and I didn't say they were the most attractive computers. That said, I personally would take the Mac Pro case. The other case just seems overdone and I've never believed in lighting where you don't need it.

As for the mice, I can't say anything. No way should that be worth $50. And through funny coincidence, I've had my eye on the R.A.T. 7 for a while now.
