One way to avoid the flickering is to add width and height definitions in the css per screen size, so that you instead get a blurred image for a short while, and the it “sharpens” when the real image is loaded.

Comment on The price of an Apple by andy

Hi Peter. You are right the article isn’t focused on Mac vs PC otherwise it would have opened up the ‘usual debate’ which is always a dangerous topic

With regards to the cost of OS upgrades, this is where the Mac does very well. I have had two major upgrades costing me a total of £55.00. The cost of Pages, Keynote and Numbers (the equivalent to the Office Suite) is currently about £42.00. The CS Suite is the only expensive purchase – but the same on both Mac and PC.

Therefore if you were comparing the same specced PC equivalent machine and factored in the software they would be very similar in total cost.

Good points well made [and I would agree that computers are inexpensive] but for completeness I think you also need to factor in any other expense you’ve incurred during your ownership: any OS upgrades? any CS Suite software? These have presumably all been necessary to allow you to use your Mac the way that you have over the last four years. I know the article isn’t focussed on Apple v PC but once these additionals are factored in then I think the differential will actually be even less.
