[Find Apple products to be rock solid.]       I use Apple for my 'pretty' hardware. I use an iPhone because its the best       cell phone device. [Which IS, however, quickly changing for many reasons.] I       use a 27" iMac for working with video and audio. And, I'm going to buy the new       M1 because it is freaking awesome.              However, even though back in the day Apple was still a closed-environment,       Apple used to attempt to serve their customers.               More and more Apple is trying to force their customers to buy the newest       products, not repair their perfectly fine hardware and own them.              Thats why I made the statement concerning the camera 'feature'. Its not a       feature, its horrible. The only reason they do this is so that you'll be a       good Apple customer and buy the newest iPhone as opposed to replacing the       camera.              It sucks. Once a Linux option is good enough to be a daily driver, I'm jumping       off the cell phone devices. And I may choose Android over Apple, even today;       with Tmux and other software allowing me to run a full Android environment       makes it a better choice of ME. I appreciate you wanting to have the current       Apple products; they are great - but they certainly control their customers       today, much more than they've done historically.                            |07p|15AULIE|1142|07o       |08.........              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/01/26 (Raspberry Pi/32)        * Origin: 2o fOr beeRS bbS>>20ForBeers.com:1337 (1:105/420)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/7 10 11 81 82 420 500 120/340 123/131 129/305       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 664 1016 1017 249/206       SEEN-BY: 249/400 292/854 322/757       PATH: 105/420 81 229/426           |
