No, it's just that Mac owners can't afford to upgrade as often as do PC

Please show support for this. If anything, Mac owners tend to be better
educated and have more money.


But where is support for that statement?

I do not know of any recent studies, if I have time I will look up the older
ones...

Ok... spend a few minutes looking

Those who surf the Web using a Mac tend to be better educated and make more
money than their PC-using counterparts
...
"With above-average household income and education levels, the Mac
population presents a very attractive target for marketers, both online and
offline," the research group said.

There are some even older studies as well showing Macs to be the number one
brand for people with college degrees.

"Kelly said the greater affluence and education level of those who surf
using a Mac is attributable in part to the company's comparatively
pricier machines, as well as to their perception as a status symbol and
their greater market share among those in the publishing and design
industries. "

"Any time you lower a price point you always see a broadening of the
audience that is probable to buy it," Kelly said."

Isn't it funny how you can see the stuff you want to see, but you
ignored the part that disproved other things you've said? You
regularly dispute that Macs cost more than PCs, but there it is, in the
very source you called on as an authority.
