There you go. Same price as the apple, with vastly better specs across the board, with your precious 13" screen.
Fact is apple hardware is overpriced. Sure, you can build a contrived example like you did that makes the apple look like a good deal, but in reality apple computers cost a lot more than equivalents from other manufacturers.
Of course, I can already predict your response.
"That computer is nothing like the apple! It has too much ram and the hard disk is too big! My friend wants a computer with only 1GB of a RAM, and her files are just going to get lost in that huge hard drive!"
