I care a lot
Why should I care? Because Apple makes the bulk of their money
off hardware sales, so if folks are installing the Mac OS on a beige
box, Apple's profits take a nosedive, then they can't afford the
massive R&D it takes to make products of the caliber that they do.
Before you know it, they're forced to start cutting corners and then
we have two Microsoft's out there mucking up the tech world.
That's why the f*ck I care.
