      There are only so many acceptable types of computers for a wizard to use:

      • A cabinet sized mainframe running SunOS, OS/2 Warp or any other esoteric OS
      • Linux anything
      • A PC running a version of windows older than ME that is somehow perpetually stable
      • A hackintosh
      • A glowing orb that somehow manages to run a JVM

        Don’t forget the downsides though.

        • SunOS can be greatly affected by celestial powers
        • Linux requires learning various tongues, some old, and some that change during the speaking of them
        • This windows PC is indeed stable but only if it is left alone and isn’t in any way made to journey outside its home.
        • The hackintosh is literally begging for Dark forces to cast spells of binding on you. Use, but do so quietly and at your own risk.
        • That glowing orb only works as long as The Oracle grants you leave to use it though.

      All Intel MacBooks literally had a product called Boot Camp that let you dual boot into Windows (sold separately)
