It's striking to see that there is a full section of Troubleshooting and test procedures, over 250 pages for the PC manual, as if it was supposed to fail by default.

Apple did the opposite, user-centered approach meaning it should work by default.

Opposite cultures, indeed.

Apple's approach is "send it back to us if something is wrong", and more recently, "buy a new one".
The solutions in the test segment are all "note the error and have your system unit serviced", so there's no difference there.
