Ten, re: "That all depends on who does the comparison. Steve Jobs himself is just as much of a used car salesman as Jerry Sanders." I don't necessarily disagree with you, but don't see a lot of people showing that a Wintel machine runs real apps faster than a Mac. Maybe they don't think they need to. Personally, I don't care about low level performance. If a machine is consistently easy to use, runs without crashing on a regular basis, and doesn't require a lot of administration to keep it that way, it is ultimately a faster computer. And I find that to be the case for everything I do with a Mac. By the way, speaking of administration; I've used a lot of unix machines in the past, but would never ever want to have to administer one. Apple's OS X is based on Unix BSD and doesn't require one to understand how to administer it any more than administering OS 9. This speaks volumes to Apple's attention to the Ease of Use issue.
