the mac is a desktop/laptop w/ an OS (since they force you to put it on the proprietary hardware)

"They" don't force you to put it anywhere, sten. You are free to not buy a Mac and buy a Windows or Linux computer instead.

All the same that an HP or Compaq desktop or laptop has an OS. Why? It’s just an expensive paperweight without an operating system to make it run. Doesn’t matter if it’s Mac, PC, or something running Linux.

OS - usage

No OS - paperweight
