Hi. In today’s episode, we look at Planned Obsolescence, the resulting mountains of e-waste, and why companies don’t want you to be able to fix their crummy products.

If you expect Cody to be nice to Apple, you will be very disappointed.

    I suppose I can agree with that, but as you said that has nothing to do with the companies themselves, and more to do with third party communities working towards intercompatibility. I wouldn’t really count that as a point against Apple, nor a point for any of the other OSs.

    I will, however, admit that Linux distros tend to be cross compatible, but that’s more because they haven’t diverged “enough” from core Linux.

    Though what I really meant by that, was that you can’t take a compiled executable from one OS and move it onto another, and have it work without some sort of compatibility layer.
