    Not trying to start flamewars, but more and more I wonder how much are people willing to put up with such practices. On linux for 15+ years and everytime I try to use mac or win, it is an ordeal. And ads. F*cking ads in a system someone has purchased. And spying. Really user hostile environment. No, thank you.

      Apple has rabid fans, they will absolutely put up with this and tell you you're wrong for not wanting to.

        i enjoy watching the battles of rabid linux fans vs. rabid apple fans. plenty of entertainment in threads like this.

        for some odd reason though, there's not many rabid windows fans.

          it really is like the meme..

          Apple users to Windows users: I feel bad for you

          Windows users to Apple users: I don't think about you at all
