People install Linux on Mac, Windows on Mac (Bootcamp) or Mac OS on PCs (Hackintosh) all the time. Because it's their machine. They decide what to do with it.

- carlosjobim 2y agoYou're talking about less than 0.000000000000001% of people.
- rty32 2y agoI can only tell you the Bootcamp and Hackintosh community is (was) much bigger than you think. Or let me say this -- if there are 1000 Bootcamp users -- likely < 0.01% of the Mac user base -- Apple would never bother to create Bootcamp, write a bunch of drivers and keep drivers updated. Apple would completely ignore that use case. But they did all those things. Which means even Apple sees a business need to do something to allow people running Windows on Mac computers. You think you are smarter than Apple?
- carlosjobim 2y agoApple discontinued Bootcamp. But it's not the only feature they made that saw little use. Automator comes to mind.
- tgv 2y agoThat doesn't answer the question. People microwave their phones, fine. But it's not a reason to demand microwaveable phones.
- rty32 2y agoIt answers the question, which is "it's none of your business". And equating installing Windows on Mac to microwaving phones is ridiculous. (Bear in mind Apple developed Bootcamp, not third-party developers.) You understand that. If people are genuinely interested in real-life use cases (in which case the question should be phrased like that, instead of with the current half sarcastic and condescending tone), consult reddit or ChatGPT. There are tons of use cases out there that are well explained.
