No duh.
So are SIM cards.
This model is absolutely short-circuiting the brains of the Apple haters. It upends everything they’ve been complaining about for a decade; all the same arguments that had merit 10 years ago but were mostly resolved 5 years ago (meanwhile, little said about the things Apple currently is terrible about.)
This laptop is:
- inexpensive, but not 'cheap'
- repairable
- runs a full os; no os compromises
It is not:
- upgradable, but what laptop is these days?
Seriously, it address three of the biggest complaints against Apple historically, and we’re supposed to be mad the phone doesn’t runs a desktop OS? Who was under the impression the phone didn’t run a full OS because of technical limitations?
The Apple that Apple haters think exists (not wholly without reason) would’ve launched a $599 laptop that ran iPadOS, but they didn’t and yet there’s still complaints.
