      you have to be an idiot to pay that much for something that locked down and unserviceable.

        Weird you’re getting downvoted. I mean, they’re not literally idiots, sure, but macOS and Windows are both terrible options. Seems to be a lot of Apple fanboys in the comments.

        It’s stable and works with most commercial software. I have homebrew that I use to install gcc and whatever else I need, and I have yet to experience an answer on a Linux forum not being directly applicable when I need to solve a problem. Best of both worlds if you ask me.

        Pretty sure most homemade consumer computers are installing Windows. 70/30 tops.

        (Maybe up to 50/50 if you don’t count professionally built custom PCs)
