And right there is where we have the problem that you're "infected with"... LOL...
Your "idea" -- contrary to what all the various users know, plus all the Windows users streaming and flocking over to Apple products (being totally fed up with what Microsoft has been feeding them...) -- that idea of yours says that it's all "PR" and nothing more.
The users and those many Windows users have found out that the advertising is gravy on top of something that is quality, works well, and is designed for the consumer -- and not for the geek who can't get a date... LOL...
We can see where you're coming from Mr. Geek... :-)
I guess I keep forgetting the part where Windows 7 called “Vista 2.0” by the brain-trust at Apple, has been purchased, and is on more PCs than there are Macs to install OSX SnowKitty.
All of those billion or so Windows users so “fed up” with “Micro$uck”?
Keep up with the PR.
