They sold about $30B in Macs last year. If you're going to claim they aren't general purpose computing devices, you're operating under a different definition than just about anybody else.
- JohnFen 3y agoI'm not sure that I see how what the level of sales is has anything to do with the question of whether or not they're a GP computing device. My opinion? They are, but of a somewhat restricted sort.

- JohnFen 3y agoJust to be clear, I was saying that MacBooks are general purpose computing devices. I was disputing that the level of sales of a device has anything to do with whether or not the device is general purpose or not.
