And what if you lose? Or your lawsuit has no real impact?

> charge 0.25% Do they? I wouldn’t be surprised if their margin was 0.25% but they‘d still be charging it on top of the benchmark rate (~4.8% now) otherwise they’d be losing a lot …

I’d assume that drilling a tunnel under a mountain would be significantly cheaper than digging one in a densely inhabited city (in a seismically active area).

Because their current market valuation was massively inflated because of the AI/GPU boom and/or bubble? In rational world their stock price would collapse if they don’t focus on it…

They would probably earn more money from selling those 20 macs than 200+ official hackintosh licenses.

They would cannibalize their hardware products and with the massive margin (especially on upgrades) that’s not worth it at all. The App Store revenue is peanuts (on macOS but I wou…
