Hey, look at it this way:
-
macOS is, if nothing else, certified UNIX. Which means under the hood it’s actually a lot like Linux.
-
Are you really overpaying for the hardware? Apple makes the hardware and the OS and every other OS subsidizes the cost of their OS with ads (Windows and Android). At the very least, it feels like you’re paying a higher price for the hardware by having a small amount of more respect for your privacy in respect to invasive advertising.
-
The new Apple developed silicon (M1-M4) is actually really solid stuff, and as such, are you really overpaying when it comes to quality hardware and a quality OS?
It’s valid to think you’re overpaying, I’m just saying maybe to try to view it a different way if you have to buy it anyway.
Press X to JSON.
It’s as easy as that.
