Well, assuming that Apple can charge higher prices because
people think they are better machines, people are looking for
one of two values:
(1) It will last longer.
(2) They will fail less often.
SInce I'm running on a MacBook Pro which is no longer supported
with parts, I guess I'm at least partially in the first camp. I
do enjoy having a reliable machine too, although my machine is
starting to show its age.
