They're not stupid, why lose customers because they won't support windows when it takes minimal effort on their part? (Not that it's always supported all that well, the 5k imac for example is limited to 4k resolutions on windows because they couldn't be arsed to make proper driver support) Don't ask to ask, just ask... please sudo chmod -R 000 /* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
