I'm sorry but I get fed up of seeing posts like this. I could tell you hundreds of little details in mac hardware and software that make the hundreds of hours a month I have to spend on a computer more tolerable.
If your laptop is your profession then you care about the tools you use, you're right it's not down to speed, it's down to the thought that goes into every element of both the hardware design and user interface that means my computer thinks along the same lines as me.
The cost extra is minimal when you offset it across 2-3 years of earning but the difference it makes in small increments to your daily working life is more than worth it.
