I jus don't think Photoshop and iPhoto are equivalents. And I get what your goal was and you did well. My point was even without those things it's still cheaper.

I picked the photoshop express & premiere express upgrade because Macs come iLife which includes iPhoto and iMovie and since an out of the box dell doesn't have them, had to include them. As for the wifi card, for some depending on how their house/apartment is set up wifi can be pretty important. long story short, i was building the dell to meet the imac and not vice-versa, so tried to be as I could. Thanks again -Brandon thanks for the link! really great points about holding value…

This is the cost of trying to build a mac pro replica on your own. They come out be about the same price. I like this article by Tom’s Hardware.
