Not really, since they use the same internal components built in the same factory.

It's like getting a 20pk of McVities biscuits for £2 or a 20 pk of McVities biscuits for 50p but calling the latter "naff" because it's cheaper.

I'm sure you'll also consider PCs "cheapo naff" because they contain the same hardware as Macs at a lower price.

I consider anyone who pays more for exactly the same thing with a different logo on it to be either stupid or ignorant.

I've told him to read this several times but he prefers drinking his own kool-aid and believing a product is inherently better if it has his favourite company logo on it.

Ermm there's no such thing as DHCP overheads and NAT doesn't exist on a NIC or a switch, are you sure you're not just picking random networking-related terms out of thin air?
