• Article is new, long enough, no copyvio concerns, hook is interesting (particularly for someone like me who likes to take Macs apart and treat them like PCs). Have to AGF on the source as the Google Books link doesn't seem to be working for me right now. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 11:09, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
