This is very much true as well. Before buying each new machine, I try to see if there's any Linux equivalent, and I peruse ZaReason and System76's catalogs, trying to find something that looks good. Even if I were going to run Linux on it, I'd still probably go with Apple. Even for a home server, there's not a lot that would recommend their offerings over a Mac Mini. In fact, ironically, our esteemed host has fixed the one major issue I had with Apple hardware, i.e. terrible driver support in Linux for hybrid (integrated/discrete) graphics chips in laptops! I am looking forward to trying a distro which has incorporated mjg's work described in this post.
