That's just the image that Apple fans have these days, cultivated by them, popular culture, and Apple marketing. They're the only tech company that spends so much time and money marketing their product as hip and trendy. There is going to be backlash.

The Calgarypuck tech forum also seems to be more full of PC users or IT professionals and gamers, etc. who would naturally gravitate toward the PC. Maybe if this were art/design forum you'd have more Apple users.
