Does this have to be about Macs? Can Every Body Owns a Mac also be aplied when every body has the same brand of computer?

"It also helps that the minimalist design of most Apple products means they don't really stand out in the background of a shot."

I'm sorry? One of the best things and most common things Apple does is create distinctive easily visible designs. Bright white, backlit logos, multicoloured desktops? And they've normally made sure they get the obligatory nothing-but-the-logo-shot.

I mean they're pretty. Really pretty. That's the point. And it's noticable

PC are only cheaper than macs if your time is worth nothing. if you take into account the time and effort speed loading software, buying and setting up necessarily accessories and have putting up with consent virus attacks and crashes mac come out on top[1]. Just saying.

I don't believe you. Mainly because the constant virus attacks and crashes are a myth on a well-organized system (3 viruses, 3 crashes in the last four years on Windows, 0 and 0 on Linux, which is statistically insignificant).

I don't really use any accessories, so can't speak for that (but don't believe that setup time can be considered significant in either case unless you're hopelessly incompetent).

For software PC is a hands-down winner. Damn near everything is free or free-and-open-source on PC. All the standard Mac stuff is expensive and buggy.

Removed this:

  • In Death Note, L uses a Mac while Light uses a PC.

One person using a Mac is not an example of them being overrepresented in the show. Could be added back in with more examples of Mac-using characters.

Well, I think it could count if the one character using a Mac in a series is the cool hero, while the PC user is the fat, ugly, unpopular, possibly evil. nerdface.
