Well, there's the Apple hardware, and then the third party hardware. Both are probably more expensive than PC hardware... but not as much as you think.
(I personally could never justify $349-399 for a hard drive...sorry!)
But, you've never priced internal hard drive + installation + paying someone to do the data transfer for a laptop. Even non-mac laptops, this would be pretty expensive. Laptops are like that.
The $65 solution has one problem: it leaves me with no way to back up other than CDs, which with ~40 gigs of data would take FOREVER.
