Your statement is ridiculous. The last 10 years? When was the last time you used a windows laptop provisioned by a company with a big enterprise style IT department? You know, the ones bogged down with tons of endpoint security crap, Citrix daemons, compliance daemons etc. Its still a shitshow that you have to use Linux or MacOS to escape in many places.
- topranks 6y agoIt’s a bit much to throw all that at the PC/Windows side. Sure companies fill them with shit, that’s not really a flaw in the underlying hardware/OS though. Those same people have less scope for that on OSX/Linux sure, but again that doesn’t mean the software/hardware is better.
- ben_w 6y agoSounds like the issue is the big enterprise style IT departments rather than the hardware or the OS.
- mschuster91 6y agoOh the "security" crapware also infests corporate macOS machines these days.
- adpcm 6y agoUnfortunately that is no longer reserved for Windows. JamF policies lockdown, DigitalGuardian, CyberReason Activeprobe, and various forced Firefox/Chome extensions are now causing slowdowns and crashes on “enterprise IT managed” Mac too.
- eric-hu 6y agoI use a MacBook Pro 16” for work and have to have Sophos and Jamf installed. I’m operating at 60-80% of the performance I had before those became policy. Don’t underestimate what corporate IT can do to any machine.
- pault 6y agoYou said that no non-apple PCs are reliable, so you're shifting the goal posts now.
