[QUOTE="Shazaam!, post: 1930616, member: 417688"] Over the years (decades actually) there have been many who’ve tried to beat Apple by building a better peripheral or software product. Third party software rarely causes crashes (as they once did) and industry standards for hardware have solved a lot of problems. Nevertheless, hardware incompatibilities with current and future software — and other hardware still occur. Tales of “when I do this, my non-Apple item won’t do this” are everywhere (this site included). You can try to beat Apple and take “expert” advice regarding cheaper alternatives, but my experience is that you’ll regret it a little — or a lot. For example, Apple built a computer into the Studio Display, and right now it doesn’t do much more than control the camera. That may change. Apple will update the OS with more features that may affect the Studio Display functionality. Maybe not. On thing’s for sure, the Studio Display will work as expected, now and into the future. Saving money on non-Apple products, when there is an Apple alternative, has not worked for me. Too many examples to relate and you probably won’t listen anyway. Regarding Apple product costs, my philosophy is: I can’t afford the best of everything, but I can afford the best of a few things. [/QUOTE]
