For a lot of normal people, Mac is what you buy if you want to work with your computer, but it is not what you buy if you want to work on your computer.

Do you work with your screwdriver or on your screwdriver?

That's completely orthogonal to Apple's take. They talk about how much your development efforts will speed up, your creative production. So on, so forth.

Not "it's to be an unadventurous consumer of product".

Who they market their users are != who their users actually are.

Obviously all the marketing will focus on creative uses because it makes it a lot easier to sell to people on a 1500$ machine. The truth is 95% percent of people are using their computers as glorified web browsers and the computers are built to do that extremely well.
