I have a MacBook Pro and MacOS is far worse. If I do not do a full shutdown and just sleep it, when I turn it on a few days later, with any updates, an internal OS process will go nuts and max out the CPU to such a degree, even moving the mouse is a difficult task. I have looked at the Activity Monitor (Task Manager) and identified which process that does it. I can't recall it off the top of my head. It takes me several minutes to go through the process of doing a full shut down. When I do a cold boot after, everything is fine. Great when you have to log into a team meeting... :mad: Mac OS is a very buggy OS! Windows 11 is far more stable for me.

I've been building my own PCs for nearly 30 years, until this year. A few months ago the CPU fan started making a lot of racket on my 13 year-old machine, and since it would have been hard to find a replacement, and the CPU didn't meet Win 11's requirements, I started looking at NewEgg and other places and pricing things. Turns out I could buy a brand new Dell with everything I needed for about 2/3 what it would have cost me to build it myself. I do my music recording on my Mac now so I don't need a powerhouse (though I still bought one with an i7 and 16 GB memory, you never know what I might need it for some day) so buying the Dell made sense.

Notice that it doesn't actually offer a seamless and hassle-free computing experience, it just "aims" to offer it. Marketers are expert at implying things that are not true without actually saying them. The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

That script brings back nightmares. Makes me realize how easy hackers could spin up COM objects to do anything via a malicious website.

And beat me with a rubber hose until I log in as a domain administrator in my company. I know. But that is visible and will trigger a response to the breach. Siphoning away our data without anyone noticing is where the game is at.
