they don't know how to adequately judge which ones are worth more

yeah we buy 500$ (150$ in my case) laptops over apple products precisely because we can judge which ones are worth more

Guessing power isn't your concern then. The macbooks offer power at a slight premium over the rest.

Apple service is usually very good as well -- I've had several products replaced by overnight fedex with no additional cost. Also time machine backup/restore is a godsend for mission critical workstations when you do need a replacement. But ya, most people aren't doing work where time is worth the slight premium.
