No. I happen to use anything. I am not against Apple, I am against the Apple fanboyism. And any type of fanboyism.
'Fanboy' is a pejorative term used on the internet to try and infer irrationality in others. It's like hipster. It doesn't make you magically qualified to judge others opinions or motivations just by using it.
"For example, most desktop and laptop computers use Microsoft Windows"
That is not anecdotal, though it's also not the fact being discussed. Note that I'm not trying to argue that Apple sells more laptops combined than the other main manufacturers, I don't believe they do.
