Any time I would listen to a tech podcast, they'd discuss Apple/its products for a majority of the time, despite OSX having less than 20% market share (and iOS having like half of Android's as well). But obviously since their products are the priciest as well as the most """prestigious""" they deserve an inordinate amount of attention and hype.

    Nah, apple products often have legitimately better build quality, even for the price. I've seen Macbooks last 10 years.

      If you do anything even a little intensive with them then they wear out really, really badly. Apple has been sacrificing thermals for design for a while now and even if you can deal with the throttling, the additional wear on the parts is noooot ideal.

      So have thinkpads (which are admittedly on the pricier side too, but I guess that's more a point about getting what you pay for than Apple specifically)

        Thinkpads are so bulky, but it's definitely the second best laptop and they haven't been more durable than macbooks in my experience.
