@Monkeypox : Errr. Apple is selling better with it's gadget line - not with iMacs and Mac Book Pros. Sounds like you've been brainwashed by Steve. Oh if people want to spend an extra 25%+ for the *SAME* hardware as a typical Windows based PC, then I guess they have money to burn in this economy.
Apple's OS X share has not gone up that much over the last 5 years. Go to the various sites that keep track of this.
@vulpine: Unsure where you got your 20% OS market share from. Just about every source that tracks the OS market share still has it under 10%. And your 40% comment makes no sense and really sounds odd.
I've seen some who post comments in various blogs that cry because something is not working in Windows or maybe got some malware [OK, who installed the malware or how did it get there?] and swear that they are getting a Mac. Well, you can tell these are novices. Good riddance to them.
Recent statistics now point out that Apple has taken over from Microsoft as the software vender with the most vulnerabilities in the year ending June 2010. They took in account every software made by Apple, Microsoft, Oracle/Sun, Mozilla, etc. That isn't good.
