They’re not actually relinquishing any control. They’re just allowing subsidiary “app stores” to take a tiny cut while Apple still controls everything.

I’ve been an Apple fanboy for years, but less so these days. I can’t imagine that the EU won’t fine them for this, although it’s hard to imagine any fine that would make an impression on a $3 trillion company.

    Pretty sure that machine can take 16gb, to make it extra useful.

    Opencore is surprisingly easy to setup. The instructions aren’t massively clear, but all you’ll really need is a 16gb+ memory stick and a bit of patience. Install Opencore to the Mac’s SSD, then download whichever OS you want using the option in Opencore, which will then automatically make the installer.

      You’re correct, it can take up to 16gb. I’ll try running it as it is, and later upgrade the RAM.

      Thanks so much for your help man, I really appreciate it! Will update when I get it done. Cheers bruv
