Uh, historically speaking they absolutely will do that soonish. I'm not sure why it matters though. If you wanna use a nonfree os, do so... But the only reason why Apple hardware usually works well together is because they just support a tiny fraction of available components. Now complaining about having hardware which will likely be out of support within the next 2yrs is strange, considering that is kinda apples core premise. But he's also saying that building a PC is the nerdiest thing an apple user could do, so it's kinda telling what kind of person he is. I for one am happy the new Mac mini exist and will likely buy one at some point. It's memory is low, but I already have a beefy workstation if I need to do actual number crunching. Having a secondary system that's quiet and still performant would be nice.
