    Corrections:

    MacOS:

    • Featureless Apple™-branded oblong with 195% profit margin (support for 160% profit margin dropped in Apple™ Mac™OS™ 12.8.3.1.6.4 West Coast Yuppie Resort)
    • Devices no more than two years old
    • No pride, self-respect, personality, etc, except that provided by ownership of Apple™ products.

    For Windows:

    • CPU generation newer than an arbitrary, shifting and easily-bypassed watershed.
    • 1, 2, 4, 16 or 128GB of RAM, depends who you ask.
    • Windows License 😉
    • Copilot+ AI requires Microsoft CoPilot+ AI compatible Microsoft CoPilot+ AI CoProcessor+ and Microsoft CoPilot+ CoProcessor+ AI Microsoft CertificAItion+
    • A lack of awareness or interest in operating systems.

    For Linux:

    • Turing-completeness.
    • Memory, networking, inputs, outputs, power (optional).
    • Another computer to occasionally Google who ‘initramfs’ is and why he won’t let you boot.
