I have 3 year old 15" retina mbp and it is in the same shape it was when I bought it. Still just as fast too. You can't say that about many computers out there.
I pay the apple premium for the build quality, among other things. Not to mention, it's not as overpriced as some people think. For $2500 you can get a:
15" retina screen
512 GB SSD
2.5 GHz i7 processor
16 GB RAM
2 GB AMD Video Card + Integrated Graphic
Unibody construction.
Not that bad IMO.
Plus I like having windows partition for mobile work and the OSX side for personal use.

I have no idea why someone would buy that when you can buy a comparable Windows machine for almost half the price.

Tell that to the poor owner of the macbook pro currently sitting on my desk getting OS X reinstalled. No data loss as I was able to recover his files.
Apple Owners need to understand that their shite can break as often as PCs.
Before going from PC to Mac, I would discuss with your wife the varying differences in the OS. Some ppl are hesitant when it comes to learning "new technology"
