For the kinds of people who wouldn’t be running Linux on the other laptops, maybe they just like macOS better than Windows? It’s not like Hackintoshing is trivial. It’s not necessarily a developer machine.
- thelittleone 7y agoThis is pretty much it. OSX is what locks me in to Apple. Ironic that it (OSX) is free.
- vulcan01 7y agoNitpicking, but I wouldn't necessarily consider it "free". There is a cost to get it, which is the price of your Mac.
- thelittleone 7y agoFair point, although OSX can be installed on non-mac hardware (if one has the patience) or in a virtual host.
- TheSpiceIsLife 7y agoI haven’t checked recently, is Windows still available off-license?

Personally I just recently switched back to a Lenovo Yoga from a MBP and am much happier.
