I became an Apple convert in 2007. I was so impressed with the iPod product that I took a chance on one of their laptops - a 17" MacBook Pro. This was around the time the iPhone was just coming out.

I found it ridiculously easy to use and believe it or not, It's not my main computer anymore but still have it today. I keep it in my study and use it to play music or do light web surfing.

Fact is, every single Apple product I've purchased still works today, going back to my original 2003 iPod. And despite the common complaint about Apple batteries not being replaceable (they actually are) - I've never had to replace a battery on any Apple device. Ever.

So over the years I've accumulated (3) iPods, (2) iPads, (2) MacBook Pro laptops and a MacBook Air and all of them are still in working order. Though admittedly, I've given up on using the iPods only because my iPhone (which I automatically replace ever two years) does the job of playing music.

I don't understand the vitriol of the Apple-haters. They remind me of those ignoramuses who blindly hate President Trump no matter how much good he does. But I'm perfectly happy with all my Apple product and in terms of utility (heavy usage over a long lifespan), they are actually far cheaper to purchase than any Windows based product.
