I don't understand what you're trying to say. I want to use Debian as my daily OS because I don't like how macOS does things, and I got a MacBook because they are good quality and have a good warranty and I can run all 3 platforms (Win+Lin+Mac) on it if I so desire.

You like Apple's hardware but not its OS. I think there are better compromises out there, but of course, feel free to do your thing.

I don't wanna argue, but keep in mind that I'm in Serbia and that I bought the MacBook with a "special financing plan" which the Apple reseller offered but not any of the generic stores that carry such ultrabooks as the XPS 13 or the Spectre...

I am not sure I understand

It was economically more plausiblefor him to buy the macbook than sth else.

apple reseller made it easy for them to finance a non upgradeable machine, that they now have to use for years to come.

Basically their material circumstances have lead to a particular outcome.
