You know so little about Macs. Macs rarely have any problems with them, and if they do it's usually caused by the user. I've only had 2 problems with mine, when I got the system it was DOA. 30 minutes on the phone with Apple and my replacement unit was shipped to me. The second, OS X kad kernel problems, which was all my fault. Tried to install a leaked build of OS X, I guess it was a bad file cause it froze during installation. Of course, that was all my fault.
Windows machines have problems constantly. Problems with programs not working, the computer crashing, programs not installing, missing .dll files, hardware not being detected, and much bigger problems. Most Mac owners will never have a serious problem with their computer, and honestly, I haven't experienced many minor ones either. Office 2001 had a problem opening a link in Entourage. Service Release 1 fixed that, never had another problem.
I've had two Macs in my lifetime, one for over 2 years, the other for over 1. Still have them both, keep them both up and running. If all my problems came down to a stupid decision by me, a dead machine replaced without problem, and a minor software error that was fixed with the first update, I think Macs are pretty-much problem free.
Now my Windows machines... wait, sorry, we have a message length limit
EDIT: Most, and I do feel confident saying most of the problems Mac users would run into had to deal with extentions. But OS X no longer uses ententions, so that's done with.
