To be fair to HN, Apple laptops are very common in American universities too. It's not a purely Silicon Valley thing.

This is the view you have in most universities in the US, Canada and the UK http://i.imgur.com/xzEyLQB.jpg

I don't think that's representative of the UK.

Students don't tend to have money to spare for a Mac, so they buy a cheaper Windows laptop instead.

A Macbook is 15% of a year's money, which is better spent on rent, food and beer.
