Yes - very!  They are relatively under-powered compared to their "equivalent" 
Intel-based boxes.   

Also,  build quality of their range has fallen to the point that you're lucky 
to get through the warranty period without a major hardware failure - clients 
of mine had eight out of eight machines die within six months!  

I've also got two dead powerbooks here that they WON'T repair under their 
"guarantee", as ANY physical damage is construed as abuse.  I won't be buying 
their hardware again.
