Yes - when you need a few thousand of these to render your SFX, you shop around for alternatives. Then some startup that recently built a cloud render farm for this exact use case will save you the CapEx, give you a manageable OpEx and prove this Op-Ed wrong.

Also, if you're a software business built on Apple, do some research - they'll fuck you over in a heartbeat.

Control your destiny by moving off an exclusive-Apple strategy
