Let me get this straight... Someone asks about their old MacBook that isn’t upgradable beyond Lion (or maybe it is, but they just haven’t done it?). The computer is old enough that it would fall under the same kind of software obsoleteness as Windows XP. So that makes Apple “crap”? Really?

Mac OS-X Lion was released in 2011. It's 2015 now, which means Apple is not releasing a security patch for an OS that is 4 years old. Microsoft supported Windows XP for 12 years before cutting off support.

I never said Apple was crap. It's only you Mac fanboys that are calling Windows crap.
