Sorry, boss. I was thinking in terms of those people, like the person in qestion in the original post, that is a normie, who just wants a computer that’s simple intuitive and works.
Us nerds have the freedom to do otherwise. ๐
Myself, I gave up on MSFT in about 2008, partly because I spent too much time with that company and its people, and I wanted a clean slate. So we have to choose between supporting an expensive woke apple, and a cheap broken microsoft. ๐
Today I don’t own anything but Macs. But then I gave up gaming in about 2010 as a poor use of my time. I have and can ‘fix’ a mac pro (box), or a macbook pro. But it turns out that it’s just too cheap to pay someone to do it for me. Especially when I still have a mac pro from 2008 and a macbook pro 17″ from 2010 that work perfectly. Only real complaint I have about macs is that I would like the battery to be pluggable and user-relplacable instead of glued down. And I wish it was easier to replace the ports. Otherwise memory and drive are easy to replace yourself. everything else is just the mainboard or the screen or the keyboard. Unfortunately, the keyboard is a nightmare, and you’re better off buying the top case and keyboard and replacing that. So that’s the big ‘hole’ in Mac self repair.
Cheers
