I don't know if I really want to buy a new Mac now. With all the lies and bashing the Mac Zealots seem to constantly do - is it worth it?

The reason why OS X market share will remain small is becaue Apple only wants to make it for a tiny segment of the computer market. That being the Mac. If it was available to every other PC, it might catch on and more companies would write software for it. As it is now, it's just a niche OS.
I've asked this question quite a lot previously, but I'll ask it again:
Precisely what is supposed to be so much more compelling about OS X on, for instance, a Dell, vs. OS X on a Mac?
Because Winboxes are CHEAPER than Macs, perhaps?
That old horseshoe has been disproved time and time again.
