Sometimes that metric is correct. Sometimes government policy and the views of society are corrupt or evil and would strongly disapprove of various good deeds. See:

Underground Railroad
Hidden Children In France During the Holocaust*
Tour de France champ saved Jews in WWII

Sadly such measures may be needed again in the future to save Jews in Europe.

Forfeiture of all of one's earthly possessions is a common punishment for being suspected of a drug-related crime. It reminds me of similar forfeitures required in the past.

What do you mean what is my argument?

You were arguing about things other than Macs. Neither iPhone, iPad nor iPods are Macs.

Would you have purchased exports and endorsed the Nazi party in Germany

Guess what? Jews did buy from German businesses before and during WWII. Jews financially supported the NAZIs. The Haavara (Transfer) Agreement was an agreement reached in 1933 between Jewish leaders in Europe and the NAZIs for Jews to emigrate to Palestine. Any Jew who wanted to move there would have the NAZIs buy their property then the proceeds of the sale would be deposited in a German bank with a branch of the bank in Palestine. Once there Jews could then withdraw money to buy German made goods. Not only that but Jewish terrorists groups like the Irgun and the Stern Group or Lehi offered to the NAZIs to fight against the British to help the NAZIs.

My comparison was Apple to Win7. In terms of this, Apple will never even come close to value per dollar price.

You compare a company to an OS? How about apples to apples or oranges to oranges? Now if you want to try that, compare OS X Snow Leopard to Windows 7. The cheapest Win7 is Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade at $120, an upgrade, whereas the Snow Leopard upgrade is $29. The basic Windows is $90 more. How about the price of the full versions, Windows 7 Home Premium cost $200 whereas Snow Leopard is $29. And a family pack? The Snow Leopard Family Pack, which allows it to be installed on up to 5 Macs, costs $49. How much does the Windows family pack cost? Oops, I don't see a family pack. So, to upgrade 5 PCs it wold cost $600.

The Apple OS is ugly, it can not be significantly altered for user enjoyment, and is much harder to learn than windows.

All that is your subjective judgment and is not based on fact. I and many others prefer the look of OS X. OS X has as many alteration options as Windows, but it's easier to decide which version to get. And many people find OS X easier to use than Windows as well.

I learned how to use a windows computer in about 5 minutes

I learned to use a Mac in 5 minutes.

and I can use thousands of alternate set up types and arrangements for my specific utility.

If I wanted to use thousands of alternate set up types I could do that with Macs.

I can be using several dozen large programs at once, switching between them and moving files in a fraction of a second, with insane productivity levels.

Oh really? Forget having dozens of programs, who needs that many large or small programs running at the same tyme, just having two or three Windows programs running would cause my Windows PCs to have a fit. If I ran too many applications they would crash.

I use my windows computer for everything from web browing, simulation programming and design, virtual prototyping, mathematical modeling, word processing, gaming, communication, finding my way around the countries roads, learning, and anything else I want to do with it. I have yet to find anything that I can't do on my computer that a Mac can

I have yet to find something I can not do on my Mac I could do on my Windows PCs. That is except go for days and weeks without suffering a crash, which I DO NOT want to happen.

No, I was thinking of something more like these:

The more important question to ask is what games did Hitler's regime enourage -- or require -- children to play: Game Pieces from an Antisemetic Game Called: Jews Out

If anybody wants real information about how many Jews were killed in the holocaust, they can get more information at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum

Also, here is a project for collecting all the names of holocaust victims
