You make it sound like there are only 20 people that own macs...this cycle you speak of doesn't exist. Apple is getting a steady stream of new customers, and the old ones are always buying. Just because your computer lasted 6 years doesn't mean that no one else is buying during that time. So I don't think your theory is correct.

Come waste your time with me
