Price has nothing to do with replacement rate. There are many bad laptop brands, though. 30% penetration in the USA. Here we are talking about global usage. In many other first-world countries Macs are nowhere to be seen, eg 3%.

bad_alloc does not mean the allocator has stopped working. It only means that a particular allocation cannot be served. And there are plenty of other root causes for exceptions in real programs, not just allocations. That does not mean one
