Why are mockups - site presentations for a web design portfolio always shown on Apple gadgets?

I want to make my behance more beautiful and interesting. Looking for screen mockups to insert my website design into. And I discover that all, no, ALL laptops that are in mockups are Apple ones. It's as if I'm not making websites under windows, as if no one watches them on ordinary computers. As if photoshop is not on windows, but I don’t have a lenovo laptop.
I once met a comment by a well-known designer that they often make presentations of works in mockups and "fire" - who puts the cursor on the wrong axis, who has the version of safari with the version of the cursor or laptop ...
Is the solution to the problem humility and participation in " Yabloko world design conspiracy", or are there mockups with windows devices, such as laptops?
Google search didn't help.

I don't agree with everyone.
This is not a standard, this is a purely Russian attempt to sell their creation at a higher price.
Type design of course is not ideal - I'll put it on a poppy, it'll be the very thing.
There are several cool foreign studios - they often have Apple mixed with gnomes, Sony and Surface.
I erase the logo on any technology used - whether it's Apple or not.
Bottom line: if you want to move on, be original. Do not use hackneyed layouts - look for new ones.

Why mockups on Apple gadgets
1) Because it happened that way. So accepted. This is the standard.
2) Because the technique from apple looks minimalistic and does not distract with the details of its design from the presented object.
Is humility and participation in a global design conspiracy the solution?
The solution is not just humility, but awareness of why poppy backgrounds are taken. Use backgrounds with other devices when necessary. If the product has a direct dependence on the device.

+1 to Nwton - I would argue about the standard, but in general, yes, it's common practice. And it arose precisely because it is a premium product of a premium brand + a clean, neat piece of aluminum in a neutral color, without clumsy logos, stickers "Intel Inside" and "Windows XP Home Edition", (well, Nvidia can stick its own) to In addition, devices do not often change design and look strict and familiar. Besides, the unibody is already awesome. And it still looks great, out of time, out of fashion. And, of course, such practices come from the West (mainly the USA), where, in principle, the share of Apple products in the creative sphere is unrivaled. Finding a designer who doesn't work on a Mac takes a lot of effort. Well, if I drive a Mercedes, then why should I put a Lada on my avatar, right?
