Apple boots Windows 7 out of Boot Camp

Re: Apples values.

Not letting your device boot into a certain OS. This stinks,

They're not preventing you booting a certain OS, they've just decided not to write drivers for an operating system that was EOLd before the hardware was released. According to the linked apple support article they've not removed windows support from older machines, just not added it to newer machines. Which, considering it's probably a not insignificant cost to develop/test and support such drivers really isn't a huge deal.

and is just another reason, in the list of many, Apple is controlling, and only interested in spinning money.

That's how companies work; they make money. It's okay though, you can buy a laptop from another manufacturer and install what you like.
