I don't believe you know what the WORKstations are running.

It's very probable that the servers being used as rendering clusters are 
running Linux, because that would be the least expensive OS to run, and 
with no need for direct user interaction, who cares what it works like 
from a UI perspective?

It's a word that means "most powerful desktop". That's all.

It's probable that effects houses are no longer using Macs, but that is 
simply because Apple has ceded that market. It's not big enough for them 
to bother with.

I'm getting that with Windows 11 on a mini PC from China, though.  Is it 
as fast as a new Mac, no, but it's surprisingly usable.  I'm watching a 
video from Amazon Prime on my TV with the sound in my headphones, just 
like I had with my big desktop I destroyed.  Who needs Apple.

There's also this matter of "expandable", which Macs _do_ have,
with the advent of "external pcie", aka "thunderbolt".

True enough, although with the improvements that USB-C has been getting 
deployed on the WinTel PC side too, the hardware market is effectively 
equalizing, especially if one looks to "good enough" metrics.

The real point here is that one doesn't need to be a brave little geek 
to open up a PC's guts to perform upgrades on/near the motherboard like 
we did 30 years ago (when CPU speeds were measured in MHz) to extend a 
PC's useful life to more than 18 months.  The DIY homebuild niche is 
thus becoming increasingly less relevant to the general use case.

Sorry, Linux fans:

Pretty much everyone disagrees with you.

Very true.

As for Ken Thompson, he is now 82 years old and works for Google.  That 
tells you all you need to know about his state of mind.

Resorting to ad-hominem attacks to try to discredit a well-regarded 
authority with a long-standing reputation is ... a sign of desperation, 
let’s face it.

While I disagree with the nature of the attack, the previous poster just 
used a different logical fallacy:

Appeal to authority.

That isn't relevant.

Argumentum ad verecundiam (Appeal to authority)

The Appeal to Authority uses admiration of a famous person to 
try and win support for an assertion. For example:

“Isaac Newton was a genius and he believed in God.”

This line of argument isn’t always completely bogus when used 
in an inductive argument; for example, it may be relevant to 
refer to a widely-regarded authority in a particular field, if 
you’re discussing that subject. For example, we can 
distinguish quite clearly between:

“Hawking has concluded that black holes give off radiation”

and

“Penrose has concluded that it is impossible to build an 
intelligent computer”

Hawking is a physicist, and so we can reasonably expect his 
opinions on black hole radiation to be informed. Penrose is a 
mathematician, so it is questionable whether he is 
well-qualified to speak on the subject of machine intelligence.

The difference is, Ken Thompson was one of the key figures -- perhaps 
*the* key figure -- who created Unix in the first place.

Unix isn’t some mathematical or physical theory from science. It’s an 
artificial construct, put together by humans. He was one of those who put 
the construct together in the first place. He knew why he did things. He 
can see when others fail to appreciate why it is the way it is.

The Mac I bought to try out ended up getting completely wiped and 
Windows 7 put on it, though I did try using Boot Camp, but was 
unsatisfied with that setup.  I actually liked Snow Leopard when I first 
got it, tried numerous Apple-native apps, tried out its Unix components, 
thought it was cool, but it wore off.  I'm just not wired for Apple.

In what way?

More specifically, if you're "not wired for Apple", because you replaced 
it with Windows, what makes you more "wired" for that?

Windows is just WYSIWYG, Mac is quirky.  Linux requires comprehension, 
which I have, but I'm not disliking using Windows again, for now.  I 
haven't made my decision about replacing it with Linux on this mini PC.

Unresponsive.

In what way is Windows any more WYSIWYG than macOS?

I could be out of date, I guess, having used macOS during Snow Leopard, 
but then again it hasn't really changed fundamentally, it's 
counterintuitive to me.  They are on a lower intellectual level than 
Microsoft, and definitely the GNU/Linux realm.  People who click with 
macOS are willing to pay for the privilege, but damn it's pricey, the 
hardware options not competitive with Windows devices.

IN WHAT SPECIFIC WAYS?

HOW was it supposedly "counterintuitive"?

See: I can list some ways that Windows as it stands TODAY is downright 
user hostile.

1. Windows 10 created a new application called "Settings"...

...but you still needed to use the Control Panel for some things.

And that is still true (albeit to a lesser degree) of Windows 11.

2. How do you change the scrolling direction of the mouse wheel 
(assuming your mouse has one).

I could go on, but believe me there are others that astound me all the time.

And overall, the fluidity--the look and feel--of the interface is just 
terrible! The pointer doesn't move as smoothly. The rendering of... 
...everything in the UI looks terrible.
