    Since I started moving my family over to Apple, the amount of tech support I needed to do for them dropped to almost zero. It just works. I have my Raspberry Pis and Linux boxes for fun and my MacBook for when the computer needs to get out of the way and let me work.

    That said, I have zero interest in buying this absurd fashion accessory ;)

      I used to work in Apple tech support and trust me the people who buy iPhones are the least tech savvy people in the world. People dwelling in caves in prehistory would have been more capable than your average Apple customer.

      A good chunk of them found the concept of plugging your iPad in occasionally to be beyond comprehension. Also that their Wi-Fi didn’t have a 600 mile range and no it wouldn’t work if you were in a different country.

        You’ve just reminded me of my late sister, who insisted she could access my WiFi from 300 miles away. “How else am I getting internet?” A mystery for sure.
