I am just challenging your assertion regarding apple products being subpar.

I guess I'm living in the past a bit. Since Win7, Microsoft has regressed so far it's lost its advantage.

Apple products are still overpriced though.

I'd challenge that assertion as well -- at least as a blanket statement -- but we're treading darned near religious territory anyhoo.

Remember stuffing DIMMs in a PCI (pre-PCIe) card for a faster boot?

Yes. Also AT bus cards. Though they were DIPs at the time.

When SSDs started to go mainstream a year or 2 later, someone on the OCZ SSD forum asked what the difference was between the regular Vertex (1st-gen) and the Mac version. Why did the Mac version cost $150 more?  One of the OCZ engineers replied that they had identical hardware and firmware. The only difference was the label.

That's not an Apple tax. That's a stupidity tax, imposed by OCZ and their downline supply chain.

I'm guessing you meant NVMe above?

Yes just a typo

I figured. Just busting your chops a bit.
