You can guess how many go out and buy a Mac.

I remember I saw almost every student at IST with a Mac, and
when everyone started to talk about the crisis, people were like
"uhm, well, we can't now afford to replace our Macs with new
ones
every year, only every other year maybe".
IST is one of the best universities in the country.
The majority of the students are from middle, upper, claases.
Although there are also exceptions, of course.
Also many that do buy one, do so with a 3 -5 year long leasing.
