Mac not being able to play any games forced me to mess around with other operating systems on it

Was taught using Apple2 then Macs in Jr High.

I built my own PC in high school (late 90s), upgraded it through college, then switched back to Mac’s when they went Intel.

I can’t muddle through Ruby, Python, Perl, Php C/C++, Objective-C and Swift. But wrote Actionscript, JS, and HTML/CSS for a living for 15 years.

How you start doesn’t matter and Mac’s are still better than Chromebooks. They have Unix shells FFS.
