You're approaching the situation incorrectly. The TV commercials are irrelevant. And, as for "suggesting" upgrades, Apple is at the front of the pack.
But, the issue isn't hardware. it's software. If you want to run the latest 3D games, or the latest version of Photoshop, you need hardware that keeps up.
I have a Windows file/print server that's 10 years old and it still does the job just fine... but it also runs an 8 year old OS and has no need to run anything newer. My laptop, OTOH, needs to run some of the latest software and is only a couple years old. In another couple it will be too old to do the job - although it will still do the job it used to do.
