I used to buy Macs when I was a teenager and young adult, but finally grew tired of the "my way or the highway" approach to design.
Windows is guilty of this too, but it's more subtle, but getting worse all the time with w11.
Linux has more of a "you break it, you buy it" approach to design lol
I’m the reverse. As I get older, all the things I used to consider deal breakers just don’t matter as much. I don’t really care about how upgradable or repairable the device is, I’m just gonna pay Apple for the upgrade and pay them again to fix it. Whenever I have to solve an issue on my gaming PC I get an inch closer to just throwing it out and buying whatever overpriced gaming laptop comes working out of the box.
Not an Apple one, for sure.
If I could game on my MacBook Pro I already would be. There’s a decent library of games that can run but it’s a lot more work than a windows or Linux box if you want to venture beyond 64-bit native ports.
