If you compare the price of OS X with the price of Ubuntu Linux and then compare the volume of each one and what you get for your money you'll quite easily find out that those $129 or whatever is way too much for the OS.

This Hybrid CrossFire technology will allow vendors like Dell to offer higher quality gaming experiences for a modest $50 price increase over an integrated graphics system alone. AMD's Radeon HD 3450 and HD 2400 cards, when plugged into the PCI Express slot of a 780G motherboard, will increase the performance of an already impressive new IGP solution and this article at PC Perspective has a $350 computer playing games like Call of Duty 4 at somewhat decent quality settings. The 780G also offers a range of other features including great HD video playback, HDMI and DisplayPort support all while pulling less than 2 watts of power at idle."
