That's perfectly fine, you don't have to use a MacBook if the value isn't there for you.

Are they also not allowed to comment about it?

Just seems a bit pointless, that's all.

I'm never going to buy a Bugatti Chiron, but you won't find me going to their forums and bleating on about how the gas mileage isn't as good as my Ford Focus...

I have used Apple products because if you calculate how long they last and the original cost, they cost less over a longer period of time.

Or at least they did. This loss in value is what I’m complaining about.

And this isn’t Apple’s forums, now is it?
