Linux Mint for the desktops. Windoz in VMs.
I’m just pointing out that Apple stuff doesn’t “just work”.
My wife experiences all sorts of trouble with her iPad. I don’t go there, she has to take it up with the “geniuses”.
That has always been the biggest joke when Apple smugly started calling it’s employess “geniuses”. They were basically liberal snowflakes before the term snowflakes becsme mainstream. And as far as them being geniuses, it’s pretty bad when you know more about the products than they do and you’re not a Apple fanatic.
