You can log into your Mac and your AppleTV and your iPhone and your iPad and all the services Apple has to offer with your Apple account. How is Microsoft offering the same thing any better?
- int_19h 2y agoYou can't log into your Mac with your Apple account; you still need a local account created first, and it has its own login and password separate from the Apple ID associated with it (if any).
- tannhaeuser 2y agoThat's preferable to Windows 11 requiring a cloud account in my book.
- hu3 2y agoI installed Windows 11 last year without cloud account. Maybe because it's Pro version? I don't remember doing any incantation but it's possible that I didn't connect internet during installation.
- tannhaeuser 2y agoIt's not possible using the current install process, not even on Windows Pro (tested with a fresh install on a notebook that had a Windows 10 Pro OEM license registered/activated like is typical). The various hacks to trick the process don't work anymore.
- hu3 2y agoOuch. The only reason I use Windows is because as a consultant clients make me use a bazillion different VPNs which often works better/only in Windows. Otherwise I would use something like Xubuntu. So it's sad to know that my next Windows machine will require a Microsoft cloud account.
