I would have to say that the biggest stereotype surrounding the Macintosh computer is that only the wealthy are able to afford a computer. Many families today have purchased a Mac computer either for themselves or perhaps they use one in their place of employment. If it's for work purposes perhaps they are able to write off the purchase when they file their taxes. Either way, a lot of people stereotype others by thinking they have a lot of money simply because of 1 item. A person cannot be measured by the things they own, but by their character.
The theory behind stereotypes is usually unfounded. People generalize things too much and don't have all the facts before judging someone which in all actuality stereotyping is just the same as judging someone.
