have not seen tartan beer or deep fried shit since the 70s,we have moved on since then man.....
Buckfast and curries now
all the free stuff you get on windows.
Don't get me wrong I'm not apple fan boy I would never own an iPhone or ipad, and still have a windows Base unit for real computing, (gaming, music, porn etc ;-)
But as a laptop nothing beats them in my opinion
Also the little things like the magnetic charging point, best track pad with multi gesture,high dpi screen and the thinness of the macbook air makes it a no brained if you have the cash.... Plus they will out life a rival windows laptop for relevant longevity by a good 3 years,
Down sides:
Not upgradable at all... Not even the ram,
Repairing one is expensive,
The big initial outlay
Everyone thinks your a apple fan boy chump when you use it in public or a work

I agree with this, the gap has really closed over the past few years, same applies with photo editing 4-5 years ago I would have sat at a Mac without question, nowadays either or is fine..
I do love Garageband tho, and iMovie knocks socks off of Windows Movie Maker, also I have never had latency issues with instruments on a mac wheras on Windows I have had to tweak or sort drivers out etc...
I have both systems I cannot say I favour any like I used to..
I am now remembering the good ol days on my Bondi iMac G3, dial up and good ol Netscape Nav, awesome
I never did manage to fill that 6 gig hard drive!
