Maybe not iPhones, but there's probably some of that with their computers.

Apple has been selling computers that cost more than their competitors for over 40 years. Do you think they have been that successful just based on a “status symbol”?

The average person doesn’t even care about computers that much anymore.

Besides, computer sales are only 11% of their revenue.

You've overreacted--I didn't say it was solely due to being a status symbol.
