Customer service of Apple stores

I dont agree. I am not sure what you mean by Tech Savy (I guess IT guys!) but people in music industry, graphic designs and such prefer macs over PCs. Its not what you are but what you do determines whether apple is a better choice or PC. I like to believe (I dont have and statistic to back up my claim) that the amount of energy, time and money that we have to invest to secure our PCs against malware and virus, almost balances the premium that apple charges up front.

I agree with your statement about what a person does… but the roles you’ve highlighted aren’t necessarily tech savvy - they’re just creative roles… also, the thing about their preference of macs over PCs was certainly true 7 - 8 years ago, but isn’t true any more - recent market stats shows no specific platform preferences even for people in these creative roles.

Also, having worked in IS Security, I can tell you that the whole Apple OS being more secure than Windows is simply a myth. Apple has its own share of vulnerabilities, some issues even more gaping as compared to Windows.

It may feel like I’m attacking Apple unnecessarily which I’m not. There’s plenty of good in their products and servies… product design, interface usability, and customer service come to mind… but again, their apps are not meant for productivity… just utility.
