More on why Windows is terrible:
https://overcast.fm/+CdTNu0Vk/44:04
Is that Marco Arment’s podcast? It’s Mac users like those that help explain why PC users think we’re all smug morons who can’t use any consumer product without an “i” in front of the name.
And that’s even before getting into the technical aspects they don’t understand. No Man’s Sky, which they purchased for Windows because it wasn’t available for their PS4 and they didn’t want to buy an Xbox, is available on…PS4, not Xbox. I don’t feel sorry for anyone who spends a day trying to get Windows running because they didn’t spend 30 seconds researching the game first. Dur.
It’s like you didn’t even listen. Marco pointed out the game his wife was trying to play was Inside, not No Man’s Sky.
Also, lol at trying to run any current game, let alone that game, on a 5K display with iMac graphics hardware and expecting good framerates. Double dur.
And lol again at installing Windows via Bootcamp on an external drive on a MacBook Pro, then acting surprised that it needed to install different drivers when connected to an iMac. Do these people even know how computers work?
^ Rhetorical question
John pointed out all the things that Marco did wrong, which I mostly agree with. But there’s still some valid criticism there: The “graphics driver crashed but it has recovered” message is totally unnecessary. You shouldn’t have to worry about activating Windows.
And Marco should at least know something about how computers work, as he does do programming professionally.
