First off, look we get it, you love Apple and that's fine. Just don't make comments of "oh, I don't like them but let me make a bunch of easily disproven claims to make them seem perfect and amazing".
And they are all over 10 years old. Apple at best supports 7ish. This isn't the brag you think it is.
Again, same answer. They are the shortest time supporter, and the highest cost.
No, they didn't. I've used Mac's since the 80s, in the 90s, and have a 2009 MBP. No they didn't. Never have.
Go find me one with a working CMOS battery. Those are soldered, non-replaceable. Again, I have a 2009 MBP, and even that can be replaced. And a quick eBay check will find the other motherboard.
And go look at how much Google claims to do the opposite. Which one is better, the one who's up front and honest, or the one who lies to your face?
Uh, huh..... Again, which one is better, the one who's up front and honest, or the one who lies to your face?
