Everyone has good experiences with all kinds of different things. Some people buy Ford cars and love them. Some people buy BMW and would never buy a ford. It does not mean Fords wont last longer then BMWs based on who is taking care of them.
I use Linux/BSD daily, would never use one as a desktop. I like things to look good. Unfortunately, the Linux geeks don't give a shit about looks. And that's fine. To each it's own. I find the Macs to be a nice blend of functionality and looks.

As for me not being smart, as the saying goes, good thing about being stupid is that you can always learn new things. I'll freely admit to being stupid (especially in a conversation where OS benefits are coming down to attacks on personal intelligence).
