Where you think what? That Apple still supports old versions of OSX? They dont even support their own hardware after 5 years barely.

Seriously, no one is “forcing” you to do anything.

It’s the same silly narrative with every Windows release. Wacky stories of exaggerated calamities and people swearing that (pervious windows version) was far better and they will never use anything newer...only to then do so and swear that one was the best version. I’ve seen people in comments “swear” by every version between XP and 8.1 as being the only good one. You all can’t be right.

I never ever saw anyone write that Vista was the best ever.

Don’t be so touchy, Bill. I’m not all that concerned about your backend support. Frankly, that means little to me. I just want my stuff to work.

We’ve got numerous Apple devices—three iPads, 5-6 iPods of various generations, and several iPhones (versions 4, 5, & 6) and none of them ever need repair. I once broke my iPad screen but it was clearly my fault. I paid to have it repaired and it still works flawlessly.

Right now I own 5 laptops running windows 7-8.1 and two desktops running Windows XP. Each of the laptops are less than two years old and each has had to be taken to the repair guy at least once. I bought mine a year ago this month and it has been twice.

Basically I had already decided I am done with Microsoft before I knew Microsoft 10 was coming. After all of these computers die, they will be replaced with Apple products. I’m no Apple fanboy. I was hesitant to give up my pc mostly due to familiarity and Microsoft Office and because of some proprietary software I’m running, but due to reliability, Apple has slowly won me over.
