I just find this language interesting. How a computer now "lets" you install non-walled garden software, as if that hasn't been the default behavior for personal computers for over 40 years since the beginning.
But I thought that the whole thing about the mac was that it wasn't a personal computer (pc)?
What, does it still belong to Apple after you buy it? Lol
I think he might be referencing those "I'm a Mac. And I'm a PC" commercials
Which were stupid for their phrasing, but marketing genius, lol
Some people literally believe that a Mac cannot be called a PC.
