I love WaPo. I hate Jared Kushner and Donald Trump. But this article begins with the attitude that I often find among laypeople who still put Apple on a pedestal: a bizarre combination of misinformation and elitism.<p>&gt; <i>The computer was a recent-model Mac, but when I turned it on, it was inexplicably running Windows.</i><p>&gt; <i>“So he was basically using a $2,500 desktop as a monitor?” I said.

My previous 2 laptop were MacBook Pros - running windows. Good hardware is good hardware. (Then new MBPs weren&#x27;t suited to my needs so I&#x27;m currently using a new Dell XPS15.)

Both my Mac Pro and my Mac Book Pro run Windows 10. I don&#x27;t feel guilty.
