The loyalty amazes me. The only Apple product I have is a iPod Shuffle MP3 player our boss gifted us with one Christmas. That introduced my to iTunes
on Windows to load the damn thing. What a piece of dreck. I was used to players that are just another mass device when you plug them in.
Apple must have a hell of a product placement budget. How many movies have you seen where someone is working on a generic laptop rather than
something with the Apple logo front and center?
I guess the lower intelligence arty farty range of folk that like Apples (like my sister) fall for that nonsense.

Your aunty too! 😅
True! Don't tell her I said that!
Yes, both of them are arty folk. One is a garden designer and the other
is a proof reader.
Hang on.... did you ever test your IQ?
 You have Apples....

Yes - I did! The result put me into a Grammar school.

I have! :-)
The 27 inch one is running macOS Ventura and the 24 inch, Linux Mint!
Can you read the comments which I made under this video?

(The video itself is quite an interesting watch!)I see your question about monitoring, then your post that your other post had disappeared. Assuming you didn't swear in it (Youtube used to delete such messages without telling you), not sure where it went.

That's what I associate Apples with. I'm basically a whore

That's what I associate Apples with. I'm basically a whore but no one ever wanted to pay me to write Apple software so I've never used one. The only place I've ever worked with them had the original Mac that looked like a toaster. It's claim to fame was it met the DOD TEMPEST requirements.

I doubt Apple was aiming for that market but the all-in-one design cut
down on radiation.

At my last place of work we found a load of Mac Classics in a cupboard. I resurrected a few and sold them to idiot collectors on Ebay, some got used
as door stops for fire doors, and some we took outside and had a
competition to see who could throw them into the skip from the furthest distance.
A stupid waste of money (and resources)
Even dead classic Macs bring in some money when sold, nowadays.

Simple version:
apple is a fabless chip designer, much like amd and many others.
When I clicked the link, the context of that quote was exactly what I thought, that they surprised the industry, by being the first large
scale manufacturer, to move away from aging architecture, I dunno how
you're so in the dark about that.
no you can't. not everything will work, and it's the same with macs.
