Yes, and if you don't count that abomination that they call the Porsche
Cayenne, an Acura or Lexus still provides a lot more utility than a
Porsche. (Ever tried sitting in the "back seat" of a Porsche or carrying
home a 25" TV in it's box in one, which fit just fine in the back of my
Acura Integra?). Out in the "Real World"TM there are still a number of
things I just cannot do with a Mac, even if I wanted to, such as run
that accounting system or integrated management system or other
business-critical semi-custom application for which clients simply are
not available for anything besides Windows.

Sounds more like a Acura or Lexus. It's about the fit and finish and
handling. Not just performance... Sorry try again.
