We've heard for years that Macs are overpriced, that their owners overpay for style over substance. The "rich but stupid" demographic seems like an ideal target, even if they only made up 1% of Internet users. Banks make up less than 1% of businesses but people still specialize in robbing them.

I don't believe the "overpriced Mac sheeple" meme at all, but there always seemed to be an overlap between people who dismiss them as "safe because they're so rare" and "Apple tax LOL" critics. That always struck me as an interesting dichotomy.
