What's the deal with Apple?

I think our teachers all work for Apple. They constantly make examples where they compare how good Apple is to other companies. The teacher we had today mentioned Apple about 50 times and he was just talking about marketing (for 4 hours though). I love my mac but I'm almost starting to feel like it's a little bit too big deal here. Honestly i really think they all are working for Apple. And it workes because alot of my classmates are switching even though they just bought a new PC and the ones which still have one is feeling very left out...weird, right??!
