Apple blues

Say a Dutch bloke wants to buy an Apple iMac. He has set his eyes on the 24”, 2.8 Ghz. model. He encounters the following incredible price differences. Mind you, the iMac for Europe is made in Ireland.

All prices converted to Euros and including sales tax;

US: 1574.45
UK: 1996.45
NL: 2219.00

The Dutch bloke feels robbed!

As an Apple stockholder, and outsourced from a Dutch company, I think it's fine.
