I love the quality of apple hardware. I love knowing that the software was built for the hardware (or vice-versa, whatever). I do not enjoy configuring operating systems & desktop environments - I want to solve problems in the app I'm developing, not my development environment. I have been delaying upgrading my MBP and iPhone, however, because I'm scared. I'm scared that the headphone-jack-removal, touchbar, locked-down-bootloader philosophy will continue, and I'll have to buy a thinkpad. I want to keep being an apple fanboy, but they're making it difficult.
