In other words, the Mac would be half a second faster on a typical
operation, at most, who the hell cares, my computer also didn't cost
as much as you are adding up, it's a little under $1000.  The Winblows
license is not really part of it, I'm not even using it anymore.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
