The Mac hipsters[0] are still very much around, they're just diluted. They will, however, come out of the woodwork on literally any article that makes Apple look bad. As you noted, most people buy Apple because it works and does what they need it to do. They aren't aware of the anticompetitive bullshit Apple pulls, but they'll absolutely criticize the shit out of it if it's brought to their attention. [0] I'm resisting the urge to call them Mac Objectivists. They program in Objectivist-C, naturally.
