Dell's display of antipathy towards Apple

Being Mac geeks does not make us (totally) dumb. And while our favorite computer manufacturer is a bit late in updating its line of LCD panels, or at least in lowering the prices, Dell is doing some aggressive marketing.
You can now buy Dell's colossal 30" LCD monitor for $1,349 (plus a handful of $ for shipping), while Apple's own 30 incher is still selling for $1,999... that's, like, $650 more!
OK, Dell's monitor might not be as stylish as Apple's, but it is HDCP compliant (so you can hook it to your PS3 or HD-DVD or Blu-ray high-def player), has 4 USB2 ports (Apple's has only 2 USB2 but 2 FireWire), a
9-in-2 Media Card Reader and ships with a 3-years extended guarantee (vs 1 y for Apple).
Wake up Apple! It's time for a long-awaited upgrade...
