I gave up on Macs a decade or so ago, after working "Pricing and Availabibility" for a major computer store chain. People would call several times a day, every day, to see if the latest Apple products were finally received. In all too many cases, Apple announced they'd dumped that product, or changed something to a new model, etc. Then there is the issue of just what is available. Go into a large computer superstore, and try to find the Macintosh section. It's in the corner somewhere. Oh, the rest of the huge store's content is for PC's. Besides, if I went for a Mac now, I'd have to dump all the stuff I've collected to date. No way.
