I converted from PC to Mac over 10 years ago and I'm definitely not going back...
It might not represent as big of a source as revenue as before, but I still love their laptops. They might be a little overpriced but I definitely don't complain about my laptop the same way others complain about their PCs.
I hear you. I'm not an Apple fanboy, I won't rush out for the latest gear, or force through an upgrade of my phone. But I work as a developer and the stuff I do is a pleasure on a Macbook Pro, in comparison to a Windows machine.
Also the quality of the product is great - priced highly, sure, but it is one of the few brands that produce such a high quality finish.
Exactly. I'm not a fanboy either and don't rush out t get the latest crap. I will actually be selling my iPad soon since I don't use it enough to warrant having it. I otherwise only use a Macbook Pro, though I'll be switching to an Air before the summer since this one's about 4 years old.
Consistent quality and every time I go to the Apple Store with a laptop problem, they help me without eye gouging my wallet.
