Internal expansion is limited on most Apple hardware - and for some purposes
this is bad. No doubt.

Incorrect. It would serve me, for example, a lot less well even for the same
or greater cost.

So show it with your Voldermort software. But you never will because not
even you believe your claims.

I have no problem with getting third party support for the printers, AIO
devices, USB headphones, speakers, mice and keyboards, monitors, backup
drives, flash drives, etc. that I use. But keep in mind how little you know
about getting devices to work with OS X:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Peter Köhlmann, after being shown these videos:
<http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/PrintFirstTime.mp4>
<http://tmp.gallopinginsanity.com/FirstScan.mov>
Both show an OfficeJet Pro 8600 after being connected to a network and
being used for the first time on a Mac. And it works very, very well.
-----
Scanning [on OS X] is not supported *at* *all* without jumping
through several hoops. This includes hunting down 3 different
software packages (libusb, sane-backend and sane) *and* installing
them. Out of the box no scanning is supported at all. This is in
stark contrast to linux where scanning is supported right from the
start after setting up the printer
The same is true about *all* OfficeJet Pro printers under OSX.
-----
LOL! Yes, after being shown how an OfficeJet Pro works without doing
*anything* extra Peter still makes these completely incorrect claims.
