My [X1 Extreme](https://d-s.sh/2022/month_without_apple/) is much too powerful for my needs. I don't create music nor generate 3D graphics. I'm a humble developer and have never maxed out this device. Yeah, the battery life is far from what I'd love it to be - but that may be Linux. - -But what I've largely forgotten about is how easy it should be [upgrade a computer](https://d-s.sh/2023/openable-laptops/). You buy a MacBook, and the only way to change any component is by purchasing a new MacBook. This is terrible for the consumer. - -My wife needs a computer for Cytrix. And what have we got her? A 15O USD worth of thin-pc. You can change the CPU and storage and add ram there if Cytrix decides that Windows 11 is the way to go. But we don't need it now. - -Apple made the technology world amazing for investors but hostile to real users. As I [wrote before](https://d-s.sh/2023/macos-is-now-spying-even-more/) - -> It's 2023, and I see no reason to buy anything from Apple anymore. - |
