    This is really market share against Microsoft, not Mac. For good reason too, Microsoft is working very hard to ruin their company. They’re losing a lot of ground to Mac as well, especially in the small business sector where many things are web based now anyways. Run an MSP and we’ve had quite a few clients get fed up with inconsistent updates and repeated dumb problems… looking at you WSD and printing.

      Oh don’t worry. Apple has been working very hard on enshitifyjng their OS. They just don’t get reported on as much as Microsoft.

        I worked for an MSP that supported an all-Mac environment. Got real tired of telling people that their problem was a well-known bug in Mac that Apple has ignored for over 10 years and would probably never be fixed. I had to give that explanation a lot, for many different issues.

        At least with Windows people expect problems like that. Mac people refuse to believe anything could possibly be Apple’s fault.

          I had a Mac user chew me out for putting on a non-Apple mouse that JUST DOESN’T WORK ON MAC!!!1! Found out that he’d used the non-Apple mouse fine for about a month, then changed his desk to one with a glass top, and wasn’t using a mousepad. So the laser just shot through the clear glass and did fuck-all. Didn’t even have the decency to look abashed when I tossed a magazine down as a mousepad for him until we could get him some artist-approved mousepad bullshit. Fucking ad agencies are full of twats.
