I think it depends what you are used to and how good you are with change. The first computer I used was an Apple. Now, you have to remember this was tens of years ago, I worked in advertising and macs were the way to go for graphics. They had a very slow rise to popularity, so much so that it was like our first video recorders ie: Betamax vs VHS? Betamax died a death.
For about the last 15 years i have been logged in to a PC or Laptop almost constantly and my huby bought me an iPad. I had never, ever been an Apple product fan (over-rated and over-priced to my mind) and had I known he was going to get me a tablet, I would have probably veered towards an android system.
Now I have an iPad2 and an iPhone 5 and I can't wait to get my hands on an iPad retina or mini. My hubby who is a complete technophobe (found it hard to use even the simplistic of functions on a smart phone) now has an iPhone 5 too. He (who found even basic texting an endurance) loves the iPhone, he says it is the easieapst phone he has ever used.
I too,have been well impressed, Apples technology is, I believe, second to none.
I still have petty annoyances, like it seems they want you to pay for loads of stuff I don't want to pay for, but equally they give me lots of stuff for free if I am communicating with other users.
I am not an easy convert, but have to say, I think, Apple always "think" about the user.
On the other hand I was previously completely happy with a PC, Laptop, or android smartphone. (I still like Samsung, HTC and LG.)
