Not to bash on Apple or your happiness but I had the “joy” of taking care of Apple xservers a long time ago and let me tell you that their enterprise support wasn’t up to par with their consumer support. We were faced with weird bugs and it took literally months to receive fixes.
I hope they fixed that because it gave me a mixture of frustration, doubt and despair over Apple. At least on the enterprise-side of things. Don’t mess with your early adopters, that’s a bad idea.
Then again, they probably hire highly enthusiastic people to handle consumer products versus geeks with no feelings for enterprise support
