As long as I read stuff like that you need a second Mac to restore a Mac Studio, I will stay away from Apple products. Too many times I thought it will be fine, but restrictions like that always bite me in the ass later on.

Also that they actively put effort into making things not repairable is also quire annoying.

That's only in the case of you bricking the firmware though. I'm sure they'd help you get back on the road over at the Apple store if you didn't have another Mac handy.

I got my info from LTT, where they swapped the Disks and had to do it with a secondary Mac. So now I wonder if they could have done it without it.
