I'm having a hard time understanding this comment. Did you even consider any options outside of Apple's offerings? Are you saying Shiller and his team intended to make you so blinded by Apple products that you wouldn't even consider an alternative?

> His influence on computing is deep.

Computing what exactly? Facebook and spreadsheets?




My wife has been using Macs since 2011. She’s not suddenly going to rearrange her brain. She wants to use the tool she’s proficient with.


So Shiller's influence on your wife is deep, not "computing," got it.


I have a hard time understanding comments like yours.

If you’re so happy with whatever you have, why don’t you talk about that, instead of taking the time and effort to go out of your way and getting in the face of someone you don’t even know like this?


> If you’re so happy with whatever you have

I'm not so happy with whatever I have to be so blinded by all of its shortcomings to ignore everything else, I actually use all three OS platforms (Linux, Windows, MacOS) on a daily basis. That's why I find it so hard to understand how someone can be so infatuated by one platform that they ignore all others.
