So why do so many of you still praise Apple so much?
Compared to the competition they're pretty good. Have you had a look at the debacle that has been Windows updates lately? I say this as someone who has had to roll back security patches to stop domain controllers boot looping.

Surely there's more in this enormous patch than that. They might as well just write "bug fixes and performance improvements."

Pure love-hate relationship here, my man.
