Macs die, we may as well install a revolving door for people that come here after being told at the Apple store that the miniscule amount of water that spilled onto the keyboard means the motherboard has to be replaced at a cost of $800+. MacBook keyboards are like liquid funnels, getting the water in just the wrong spot. We also see MacBook machines carried like a book that can get 1-2 drops of coffee or whatever in through the vent and it will ruin a machine. In fact, in that last 2-3 weeks I've auctioned/sold three MacBooks that were destroyed by miniscule amounts of water. I've never seen a Windows notebook that is as susceptible.
Oh, and Apple appreciates you bought the AppleCare extended warranty, but it doesn't cover water damage like most other brands of extended warranties, sorry.
Oh and iMacs that have bad hard drives, where the round trip to replace the drive takes a good tech 30+ minutes, when most PC's can be done in literally 1-2 minutes. Apple is all about the aesthetic, to heck with serviceability.
Oh and David mentioned his relative commenting that he thinks people using PC's are either dumb, poor, or a combination thereof. I'd have to say that least when it comes to critical thinking, my experience has been the opposite. Easily overwhelmed people seem to gravitate towards Apple. Not all, but that has been my experience (on average).
Finally, some keep insisting that malware on the Mac is nonexistent. I can only agree that it hasn't been as substantial as on the Windows side. But this article is a history of major malware strikes on the Mac:
