I used to be a hardcore PC enthusiast, all windows/linux, all machines overclocked, and rooted android phones with newest ROM.

I still own an overclocked pc that is too much for my needs. However, I now use an iphone and I am recommending apple products for family. Might get a macbook myself.

I remember spending few hours on linux trying to fix my printing issues. It was fun when I was bored, today I don't have the time to deal with that shit.

Apple hardware is relatively good. I have now replaced the battery in my moms dell laptop 2 times. My wife's 5 year old macbook runs like new and battery seems good. All my android phones always had weird issues. I used pure google, samsung and custom roms, with custom roms I "get it" why it was unstable.

Apple products have much higher resale value.
