    I don’t think the people that they are marketing to (people who buy Apple products) care. They will buy it just because it’s Apple.

      There are many, okay dozens, of us that buy what best suits our needs. Mac laptop for work management and interface, Android phone for self, Windows PC for son, and a few linux boxes for number crunching.

          Well made, dependable, fast, and similar enough to linux that I can do a lot of cross platform development between the two without much issue.

            that I can do a lot of cross platform development

            I’d never have thought that to be the strength of an Apple device.

              A Mac has the unique capability of running fully licensed and supported macOS and iOS. Plus it can run Window, Linux, and Android, just like everything else.

          I have multiple co-workers who daily drive linux distros as virtual machines on a macbook.

          The one i am most friends with already had a perfectly good desktop that he now keep around so his children can game.

          Or actually job can only be done from a work approved windows dell but we have opportunities and ambitions to learn more advanced skills beyond our current scope.
