It's quite clear you are coming from a position of ignorance. Just because
you're not competent enough to adapt to a slightly different ecosystem
doesn't mean it is the problem.

Market share is only a fragment of the whole picture. Apple never targeted
the corporate unlike MS illegally did. 

Windows is cheap and cheerful which is perfect for corporate keyboard
warriors. 

Apple is expensive because it doesn't target the low end, high volume but
targets demanding users who need robust, reliable hardware that works.
Hence why it's favoured by professionals in creative industries. 

macOS is also a unix machine, hence why it's liked by scientists and
software engineers who have seen the light. All the benefits of linux are
present.

False.
