its not about 'power' in the sense of a few crappy tests, other tests shows that Powermac G5s are also on top of tables they vary

Its the OSX, the quaility of the hardware, the designs and the evoulations apple comes up with

GUI and the mouse both started with the first macintosh and the ipod has spured MP3 massivly

if it was over priced people wouldnt buy it, yet it is used by creative professionals a lot and when people buy they first mac they usually keep getting macs. So something must be going on instead of this 'overpriced, not very powerful drivel from windows fans who seem to llove attacking macs. I dont mind windows and i belive mac osx is good for compitation (after all windows steals a llot of ideas from apple, remember folders?)
