Yes and no, you can spec them as high as you’d like and apple bills you through the nose for upgrades. But if you get a base model air (~$1000), iMac (~$1300) or a Mac mini (~$600) they’re some of the best deals in technology. You can’t buy a pc with equivalent cpu and graphics power for the same money. Really powerful machines, sip battery, great screens, great keyboards. It’s impossible to get a new Windows machine as good and that’s before you factor in the Apple build quality and hardware longevity. I have 2 Mac laptops going strong from 2011 and 2013 respectively.
People who moan about Apple pricing are right - you can spend silly money on Apple stuff, but you don’t have to, and some of their value offerings are really very good.
