You hit the nail on the head. Your 'short existence' is precisely why you have NOT got the experience to be able to judge that.
I've used dozens of PCs and Macs since 1985. PCs, on average, are redundant within a year of purchase, and you're lucky if it's still running properly after 18 months, but it is definitely sorely outdated, and you really need (to fork out for) a new one!
Macs, on average, become redundant only after 3 to 5 years after purchase.
So how are PCs cheaper than Macs if you have to buy a new PC every 18 months while a Mac lasts 3 years plus? Not to mention the cost of anti-malware software and the (waste of) time involved in managing it.
