It does. Support costs. How do you prove it's a hardware failure or software? What should they do? Say it "unofficially" supports Linux? People would still try to get support. Eventually they'd have to test it themselves etc.
- dylan604 2y agoApple has already been in this spot. With the TrashCan MacPro, there was an issue with DaVinci Resolve under OS X at the time where the GPU was cause render issues. If you then rebooted into Windows with BootCamp using the exact same hardware and open up the exact same Resolve project with the exact same footage, the render errors disappeared. Apple blamed Resolve. DaVinci blamed GPU drivers. GPU blamed Apple.
