Ive always owned apple products. Ipods, macbook ect. Ive never had a problem, Ive always owned a PC for my main computer, but apples are great for the extras. Talking, texting, interwebs, social media shit. Ive always used macs for that and general messing around. Some shoop when I had the laptop. Ive -never- had to repair it or it broke beyond me having to drive to the apple store in the mall and wait an hour for fix. (only once, and it actually only happened to my sister, I just drove.)
