Re: Is anyone else seeing a major opening for switching to another Operating System?

The Hackintosh sitting two desks away says that it is quite possible to install macOS on non-Apple hardware. Unlike the Mac mini that this is being written on, it actually supports the latest version of the OS. And that Mac mini is running a version of the OS which is officially unsupported. Meanwhile, zero point zero of my Windows boxes can be hacked to run Win 11. The main Windows box at home is about the same age as the Mac mini… which can be hacked to run the latest version, if I felt like it, but the Win box cannot physically be made to run Win 11 under any circumstances. Hell, I can run Win 11 in a VM on one of the other Macs, but not on any physical Win boxes! MS has gone way beyond anything Apple ever did!
