There are exceptions but they are rare...

No discounting the man's genius and contributions to technology, but he also gave millions of dollars to the Democratic party. The Democrats declared war upon me some years ago and they are my political enemies. For Job's helping elect them, I boycotted all Apple products and would urinate upon his grave.

Because I have a good job, own a home that is still worth 2X what I paid for it, my family & friends are here and tomorrow I am going to the beach where I can observe nubile bikini clad women playing volleyball in the middle of October where it will be sunny and 75 degrees.
What other reasons would I need ?

Not to mention selling you less than brand name computer parts for 10 times the markup that comes loaded with an insecure and featureless (compared to windows) operating system. Real innovative.

Then multiply that by 10000 times over the past few years.
