It's how they make so much money, same with their phones. Very overpriced and usually very under specced compared to what the Android equivalents have.

Tbh i think for a laptop you don't need a huge amount of storage like in a desktop. I bought a Macbook about 18 months ago, standard one with 120GB HDD and 8GB memory, 13.3" monitor. Took me a while to get used to it, and i'm still learning things today. And i absolutely prefer the machine & OS to a Windows OS, for multiple reasons.
