You see, the problem is that I have done exactly that, and every time, the Windows computers come out ahead by several hundred dollars. If I have time later, I'll show you some examples.

You've got the order backwards - the "cheap OS" doesn't work unless you already have the Mac. Therefore it isn't a lure so they can "stab you in the back" later.

I will happily part with $29 as it will make my MacBook even better. Meanwhile, I'm more likely going to dump my PC than purchase Win7 when the RC expires.
