I have the exact same experience with my Mac computers 🙂 My MacBook Pro ultimo 2007 works totally fine today in 2016, and also does my MacBook Pro medio 2009 🙂

I am on my Macbook Pro medio 2009 which has lasted totally fine and no performance issues – it is 7 years old now! I must mention I have changed the battery and the hard drive for a SSD, but that’s the only thing I have changed, I am just saying Mac computers rule and their quality can’t be beaten by any other high-tech company – in my opinion 🙂

So the statement “The country is so small yet it still rank 10th” is incorrect. If anything, small population size has the potential to cause even bigger (and smaller) per capita percentages due to the smaller sample sizes. It would be much harder for the US to increase its market share by 1% than it would be for Singapore to do the same.

If their prizes were lower, more people would have bought it. Most people think about iphone, ipod, ipad when they hear about apple, but most of all they make incredible computers and OS.

Actually mac isn’t that expensive, cause it last longer. I have many macs, and one is twenty years old and still working, one is 12 years old and still working.. Had no problems with any mac. Friends with pc often have problems and must buy new one twice as often as me. Mac=Quality!

Come to this country and see almost everyone staring into an Iphone at every turn! It’s scary and overrated somehow. The country is so small yet it still rank 10th. I was already with Mac during the days it was being scrutinized & climbing the market here. Now, talk about affordability & publicities, everyone’s rushing for a Mac OS or at least an Ipod. Pfft….converts.

Switzerland has a tiny (and rich) population. What about showing the actual numbers as opposed to a percentage?

For example if Switzerland has a million PCs this means there are 176,100 macs.

If the UK has a 10 Million PCs, and has a market share of just 1%, it still has far more macs.

So go on give us the real numbers…
