You'd be surprised. Once you throw in the cost of software for development machines, Windows development boxes cost more (last time I checked).

MAtthew Henry quote very apposite and, having been burgled years ago, I add my dismay ot the violation and recognise the emotional damage can long outlast any physical issues. So very interesting to me ... and I looked for the reference. I could not find it, though I did find this:
"March 8, 1713, London.—I preached Mr. Rosewell's evening lecture, Ps. 89.16, 'The joyful sound.' As I came home I was robbed, The thieves took from me about ten or eleven shillings. My remarks upon it were,—1. What reason have I to be thankful to God, who have travelled so much, and yet was never robbed before. 2. What a deal of evil the love of money is the root of, that four men would venture their lives and souls for about half-a-crown a-piece. 3. See the power of Satan in the children of disobedience. 4. See the vanity of worldly wealth; how soon we may be stripped of it. How loose, therefore, we should sit to it."

Perhaps he later reflected on the event, and summarised it differently. Would like to know the reference if possible.

It reminds me one situation I have experienced some years ago when on Sunday morning worship service I used an illustration in my sermon about one man who was robbed but as he faced the damage, he said: "its nothing important, it's just money. All important things remained safe. I am still saved, I have my loving wife, my children, my health..."
On Wednesday, just 3 days later, our house was robbed. As I entered house and called police, I remembered that illustration and, believe me, it helped me so much, I repeated to myself: "it's just money, it's just money... all important things are OK

BJClarke: Just got home from church and found this news. So sorry for the inconvenience. Couldn't help but think of Matthew Henry's quote at a time like this. On the night he was robbed, he wrote: “I thank Thee first because I was never robbed before; second, because although they took my purse they did not take my life; third, because although they took my all, it was not much; and fourth because it was I who was robbed, and not I who robbed.” What an attitude! Glad no one was hurt. B. J. Clarke

Couldn't find the other version of it, but the bit you quoted above is from p. 13 of his memoirs, which are available in entirety on Google Books.
Wikiquote has a little more info about the attribution of this quote:
MisquotedI thank Thee first because I was never robbed before; second, because although they took my purse they did not take my life; third, because although they took my all, it was not much; and fourth because it was I who was robbed, and not I who robbed. First reported in Arnold Gingrich, Coronet, Volume 17 (1944), which characterizes the quote as a diary entry. A much earlier report in "Life of the Rev. Matthew Henry", in Christian Biography (1799), p. 66, has Henry writing: What reason have I to be thankful to God, that having travelled so much, yet I was never robbed before now. 2. What abundance of evil this love of money is the root of, that four men should venture their lives and souls for ubout half-a-crown a-piece. 3. See the power of Satan working in the children of disobedience. 4. The vanity of worldly wealth—how soon we may be stript of it, how loose we ought to sit to it.

I guess to check it out for sure, one would have to visit the Bodleian Library and request to see the "Papers of Philip and Matthew Henry" which contain his diary from 1705-1713. These papers were only given to the library in 1949, which might explain why Arnold Gingrich could have had private access to them already in 1944, but the Christian Biography account from 1799 might not have (Henry had died in 1714, so his descendants might have still had tight control over his papers). So it remains a mystery... I love this kind of mystery! (Unfortunately, I don't think members of the public have access to the Bodleian; I think you have to be an Oxford student, faculty, or staff member.)

Maybe the Windows developers just borrowed them to see how a good app is developed.

If they are working with MACs they can detect where the MACs go like the Iphone
They could detect them if they have Lojack .. Hopefully so ....

While still popular among the PC-faithful, the "Mac hardware is wildly overpriced" assertion was debunked about 2 years ago here: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/apple-mac-leopard-windows-vista,1985-2.html I suspect the assertion is less apt today than it was then.
Yes, you can get low-end PCs that are cheaper than the lowest-end Macs, but if you actually talk about outfitting a PC that is comparable to a given Mac, the price differential FOR JUST THE HARDWARE is minimal. The article linked above actually does a part-by-part breakdown. And that doesn't even take into account the fact that Apple's cases and overall build quality are far superior to that of most PC manufacturers.

I thought the the same thing. I saw the A-Team this weekend and thought maybe the other bible software company hired them to get the laptops to see how a real program is made. (WOW did I really just say that?)
On Earth know not why. In Heaven, robbery permitted.
Wonder about glorifying answers for Logos prayer requests ?
