The question is, why does it run on Linux and not Apple

Perhaps it runs on a Raspberry Pi?

Or orange pi. Banana pi.

The best thing I learned when writing this comment (because I know there are other fruity labeled pi computers) is that you can look up “other fruit pi” and actually find results. Semi-relevant ones. (I use ecosia, not google/bing/askjeves, so ymmv)

I was in a hotel where there was an AV input on a TV which just showed the screen of a Raspberry Pi. If I remember correctly it was running XFCE.

Not sure why that was because the TV channels worked correctly.

Because it would be expensive, just look at the price of the Lime /s

Mine is an ancient Thinkpad, the true weapon of our Lord!

And not Windows*

Macs are not worth it for stuff like this.
