But when the tire wears out, you don't have to go to a special service ship just to get a better set of treads!

This mac book lockdown is akin to them locking out the tires of a car, so that the average person cant change it themselves, even tho theres no reason to do so other than as an anti-competitive measure.



To put the car analogy straigth I would compare changing the tires with replacing the power adapter. I'm not interested in adding a turbo in my outback like I'm not interested in adding more ram in my laptop.

Happy MBA convert after 15 years of Linux/pc.
