There are many, okay dozens, of us that buy what best suits our needs. Mac laptop for work management and interface, Android phone for self, Windows PC for son, and a few linux boxes for number crunching.
Is the Mac laptop so you aren't tempted to touch it unless you have to work?
Well made, dependable, fast, and similar enough to linux that I can do a lot of cross platform development between the two without much issue.
I'd never have thought that to be the strength of an Apple device.
A Mac has the unique capability of running fully licensed and supported macOS and iOS. Plus it can run Window, Linux, and Android, just like everything else.
"Best cross-platform support" wasn't in my bingo cards 10 years ago for Apple definitely =)
