Also doesn't this system undermine the importance of good and relevant content on your site? Again I have seen so many sites which do not have a very good content and also might be having wrong grammar in their content, but still those are ranked by google. Please share your thoughts on this.

That’s a very interesting point.
From what I know, Google's calculation of
PR is given for a
page and based on the number of pages that links to it and the numbers of the links that links to them and so on….
It is probably considered as "votes" but it also contains the factor of the site's structure – the way inner sub pages linking to each other. We can assume that if a page has many links pointing at him, it gets traffic (and don’t forget that traffic can be created in many ways, not only by referring sites…) but it can also imply that the page has some kind of popularity and importance by the eyes of others…
Good thing is that you don’t need a high
PR to get on top of the SERP's.
Now – what do you think about a relatively new site having a decent
PR for its home page, when it still has no links to it but it's own sub pages?
Well, not much of an answer but my own thoughts…
