All true but it does seem the emotion of it has softened a lot since then. In general, people seem more open to choosing the best tool for the job and keeping a mix of devices if need be.
It helps that interoperability and common software (or at least competent alternatives) is dramatically better than it used to be, that you can comfortably and inexpensively run Windows or Linux in a VM almost anywhere, and the web got big. There was once a lot of friction to so much as moving a file.
Gaming beyond Windows and native big name productivity software for Linux remain pain points.
Macs (let's ignore the Mac Pro) are relatively far less expensive than they used to be. The price difference was eye-watering for a lot of years. Still premium but about on the level of premium PCs.
