> That's not true at all, the chip doesn't matter when you sell software, hardware and services

Yes they do, I am typing this in a fully functional 10+ year old Thinkpad running Linux and getting updates to software.

I know people with with Apple Laptops that they can no longer get security updates due to the chip change. There only option is to install another OS to keep on that hardware.

But they chose to pay for a brand new model instead of leaving their OS of choice.

So, Apple is able to pull these people along raking in the doe because they are willing to send 1500+ USD to Apple every few years.

Good for Apple, PT Barnum comes to mind with Apple.
