True. It is a would inflicted by your employer in that case. Maybe you could find a different one that doesn’t inflict such wounds.

What a bubble you exist in. I'm self-employed and my entire suite of software is either windows or apple only and I have 'been a pc' for nearly thirty years and have pc hardware that fulfills all my requirements and can't run apple software.

I'm eyeing up a shift to apple when my current hardware fails me, but it's impossible for me to just go Linux.

		I think in your situation I'd use a Mac just because they don't show you a bunch of advertising bullshit all the time, but I do understand the overall point: a lot of software simply doesn't exist on Linux. Wine is getting better and better, but it's still not perfect yet. I am so wishing that they figure out a way to get modern MS Office working, and then I feel like a lot of people's only reasons for staying on Windows would suddenly disappear.

		You are a digital serf, dependent on the good will and love of a lord that gives you access in exchange for a tax. I really wish free(libre) tools existed that allowed you to do your work. Hopefully they will in the future, I am sure someone has tried/is trying to build them.
