This is the opposite of fun computing. This is commercial computing who's only use case it making sure that people can send/receive money through their computers securely. I love being able to peek/poke inside and look at my processes ram, or patch the memory of an executable. All this sounds pretty impossible on Apple's locked down systems.

They're not so much general purpose computers anymore as they are locked down bank terminals.

Bingo. None of this is for users. Apple somehow managed to put on a marketing mask of user respect when they’re at least as user abusive as anyone else.

A company who cared about users instead of its own profits wouldn’t do any of the things Apple does. Who’s really the naive one here?
