No you're missing the point, if you are comparing "cost of laptops" you have to add in three years of support if you expect to use that laptop for three years. But five years of support if you expect to use that laptop for five years.

Yes, the yearly cost is the same either way but the people who claim Macs are expensive by saying "look at this Macbook for $2000 I can get the same config in Windows for half that" aren't comparing by yearly cost, they're comparing by upfront hardware cost and ignoring all the Windows subscription, CALs and other turds Microsoft's enterprise licensing flings at you each year.
