    I like the tool and am going to keep playing with it, but in my first run I’ve found that it seems to have an issue with the “App Store” vs “terminal command” installation question. My final results, having chosen “terminal commands,” listed some distros as not recommended because of manual install, including arch, gentoo, void, etc. Otherwise big thumbs up

  • You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. Their CPUs are ARM based, so yes, they can power down more efficiently than x86 and therefore squeeze a bit more battery life. However, they charge $2500 for a $1500 machine and every minor upgrade to them costs wayyyyy more than market value.

    Which is fine. Apple can sell whatever product they want and if consumers buy them, then good, people are getting what they want and Apple is profitable. But don’t sit here and tell the world that it’s a “competitive” product. It’s an overpriced, fashionable, niche computer.

    Also, the company your looking for alongside intel is AMD
