Microsoft on an Apple? Wizardry indeed.

There are only so many acceptable types of computers for a wizard to use:

  • A cabinet sized mainframe running SunOS, OS/2 Warp or any other esoteric OS
  • Linux anything
  • A PC running a version of windows older than ME that is somehow perpetually stable
  • A hackintosh
  • A glowing orb that somehow manages to run a JVM

Don’t forget the downsides though.

  • SunOS can be greatly affected by celestial powers
  • Linux requires learning various tongues, some old, and some that change during the speaking of them
  • This windows PC is indeed stable but only if it is left alone and isn’t in any way made to journey outside its home.
  • The hackintosh is literally begging for Dark forces to cast spells of binding on you. Use, but do so quietly and at your own risk.
  • That glowing orb only works as long as The Oracle grants you leave to use it though.

All Intel MacBooks literally had a product called Boot Camp that let you dual boot into Windows (sold separately)

Only on computers that are forged alike

We gave it away. As a certified master of the arcane arts and practitioner of magick I have no patience for petty tasks like installing your software.

There are orbs to collect and weaves to comprehend!

... as a result please reach out to my associate Peregrin, you can reach them at foolofa@took.shire - yes, I do still handle account management, why do you ask?

Classic meme.

And I come back to you now, at the turn of the drive.
