This question has absolutely nothing to do with the buyers/users/ IQ. But it does deal with praticallity, ease of use, (user friendly) available software, etc etc, neirher does it deal with which is superior. The public does not always support what is superior ( if macs were ) . Marketing strategies also has a lot to do with what's popular. Actually, many of the MAC features were borrowed and introduced to the PC, such as USB, SCSI and probally FireWire.

When VCR's were introduced way back in the 60's, the BETA Technology was the best, but the public bought VHS. When I worked as a TV Pioneer in the 60's, setting up new TV Stations, and adding color to the older black/white stations, CBS had what was called the " Flying Spot Scanner " Color Technology and was trying very hard to get it standardized, it was far superior to the NTSC method that the FCC finally adopted as U.S. Standard. Then there is the SECAM and PAL methods that European countries use, which could be argured is superior to our NTSC color standard.
BTW, when was the last time you programed your VCR and set it's clock ? and didn't you ask for opinions ?
