I just checked MacBook pro prices and I think $2000 is a lot for a basic screen in a grand-ma design with a 660GT crafic card, 4GB ram (i have the same) and a 2nd gen I5 processor 2.4Ghtz (i have the 3rd gen, since 2 years). Plus I won't know prices of independent stuffs (if you need to change your keyboard, I bet you can't do it alone, and keyboards are certainly expensive).
EDIT: More infos about the config, 1/2TB memory (what I have)
I didn't take a custom Dell computer and with a very inferior price ($1600) I bough a very similar config... It was 2 years ago.
Apple always scam everyone on every product they sell, it's their main rule to create profits. It's the most expensive fruit in the universe, by far.
BTW: My computer works as well as the first day, I've broke a key of my keyboard but I'll change it by myself soon, there is 0 dust into fans even if I don't clean it etc...

My old laptop (6 years old now) had the 6600GT and I had 300+ fps.
