I'm afraid you are only convincing me that you really don't know what you're saying. Microsoft doesn't make computers. They make a handful of peripherals like keyboards and mice, and a nifty gaming console. They do not make computers or processors or video cads or motherboards or RAM, etc. Your buddy is obviously selling you a bill of goods here, telling you he's getting you a great deal on some bargain bin junk components and how they are officialy Microsoft parts. No wonder it crashes on you.
I don't really "get" where you say your mac is "worlds ahead" because Apple stopped designing their own computers years ago and simply makes PC clone computers with their OS installed in place of Windows.
If your point is that a "storebought PC" is junk a year later because of bad quality (it breaks down) then I challenge you to say that about a storebought PC that is in the same price range as a Mac.
If you are beating up on PC's because a year later their hardware has been outdated by newer and faster variants, then that point is moot because Macs use the same hardware and are outdated as new developments happen.
I'm not convinced there's any benefit to owning a mac other than a perception of superiority that comes from clever marketing.
