quote:On my first day of work as the editor in chief of the New York Observer, which had been acquired five years earlier by Jared Kushner, now the son-in-law and senior adviser to President Trump, I inherited an office and a desktop computer, both in fine but used condition. The computer was a recent-model Mac, but when I turned it on, it was inexplicably running Windows. I summoned our beleaguered IT guy to explain, and he informed me that it had belonged to Kushner, who liked the design of Apple products but preferred the Windows OS. You're supposed to install osx on superior windows PC hardware, not the other way around. Idiot.

Thanks for the heads up, op. I'm starting to think Jared Kushner might be bad.

Kushner is a goddamn quisling but i'm more concerned about the guy who had that anecdote thinking that windows doesn't use any of the desktop hardware other than the monitor

it's a pretty good analogy. he's only worried about outside appearance while the core is rotting garbage

Not ignoring the rust belt would have been a better plan.

It's not a bad way to go if a few hundred dollars won't break the bank. Good form factor for your desk, fewer cables, and guaranteed hardware interoperablity.
