The reverse of a question I asked on here a while ago.

    My MacBook air… Apple bad and all, but the battery life and (CPU) performance meet the claims…

      Yes, Apple have become a steaming tower of shitheads, but fuck me, their hardware is (generally) incredibly well built.

      I have a 2011 13” MacBook Pro that I bumped up to 16gb RAM, and replaced the DVD drive with a second hard drive. I had it running Sonoma through OCLP until a few weeks ago when I threw Linux Mint on it. Damn thing won’t die. Same for the 2011 and 2014 Macs mini that I also use regularly. I also have a 15” M2 Air, which is legitimately the best computer I’ve ever owned. I don’t imagine I’ll get the same life out of that, not with macOS at least. Asahi Linux seems to be very, very promising though.
