    It’s not too weird when you consider that macOS is a UNIX operating system. So you get many of the advantages of Linux/Unix through the terminal, with better app compatibility.

    I’ve also heard macs are cheaper to maintain en masse than windows because of simpler tooling/group policy, which would be another a big reason it’s everywhere in tech.

      I linked to a study upthread that shows IBM saving a few hundred dollars each when deploying Macs vs. Windows. Interestingly, the study also pointed out that employees using Macs did better on performance reviews.
