I’m not sure that many people want Windows badly enough they would get an Apple device and remove the original OS so they could run Windows.

From my personal experience, Widows users in general don’t mind Windows, but, definitely, nobody I have ever met finds it more desirable than macOS.

The games industry remains a hotbed of people that vehemently hate Apple, even those that have never touched a Mac.

Part of it historically was a sort of Visual Studio induced Stockholm Syndrome, where for a long time if you were doing C++ work that was the only sane way to go.

There are some companies that even filter potential employees on this basis.

Don't have to remove anything. This used to be possible on Macs with bootcamp as they called it.
