I can build a computer for under $1800 that will do anything a $3000 Dell will do just as well. I've never met a game yet that my computer can't handle at full settings, and I can re-code video, browse the web, download torrents, and still play two copies of World of Warcraft without stuttering. Quad core, 4 gigs of RAM, and SLI based video are enough to do just about everything you can ask.
Always get someone who knows WTF to build you a computer if you can, it's far more cost efficient.

Of course a custom rig will always be cheaper than a pre-assembled computer. Then again, people who buy a mac or a dell aren't necessarily going to want to do that.
Of course, the mac will also be dependent on what GPU the user was willing to shell out for. On the downside, once you've got it you can't really upgrade it without buying a new one.
