Apple makes great product with great user experience. And I say this as someone who switched from Windows PC to Linux PC on my desktop 20 years ago. My family all went Apple though, and I can completely see why. I do have an MBA, and I'm putting Linux on an old (un-upgradable) iMac of theirs because the hardware is very nice.
Does Apple charge a premium for their brand? Yes. Does that mean they're on a hype train? Nope, they really do put together a good UX - with the exception of eliminating standard ports in favor of expensive adapters.
- kevinventullo 3y agoI read “I do have an MBA” and thought if anything that undermines your technical opinions. Then it clicked: MacBook Air.
- Tempest1981 3y agoSame. I thought it was a comment about ease of installing Linux for the non-technical user.
- _lvbh 3y agoEven after reading this comment, it took me at least half a minute to click. MacBook Air = MBA.
