I mean this is fair but I don’t see much point in comparing Apple to a single commodity pc manufacturer, no disrespect intended (I love my xps 13). I suspect coffee shops and universities are simply full of the professional class I implied earlier, which makes sense to me.

Also, go to a community college and count the number of macs there. There’s a clear class bias here.

Sure, since a PC would be more affordable, and in higher performance needs have more bang for the buck.

The Macs are for other kind of niceties (not raw performance per buck) and make different tradeoffs, plus cost more.
