I wish I could. I switched to an android for my work phone a year or so ago and it is still plagued with glitchy and unintuitive interfaces. Maybe I’m just so deep in the Apple ecosystem that I can’t go back, but yeah - every minute of my usage on that phone has been misery.
I do like the hardware options… but that only takes you so far, which is not far enough to compel me to switch.

It’s not the same, you can’t track it on a map, but if there’s a tag consistently within 3m of you, you know you’re being tracked.

Alert is not the same as tracking alert, I believe.
From what I've read, they implemented a "an unfamiliar airtag appears to have been near you for an unusual amount of time" alert. Because the most likely cause of that is someone planted a tag near you.

America doesn’t get it because most of America doesn’t want it. If business could sell devices in the US, it would.

> Yes, but per the linked article: “It’s true, though, that AirTags can take at least hours before a user gets a tracking alert on their iPhones.”
That’s not my experience. I get pinged within seconds when my daughter is nearby with her handbag AirTag.

Would you rather get phone notifications or have someone stalking you?

It’s not an issue of ‘power’. His iMax Pro has plenty of power to edit multiple streams of music. The issue is having a compatible monitor (to include a built in camera). I suspect a smaller M1 iMac would work as well but with a lot less viewing ‘real estate’.

"Includes heating pad for your aching back", you mean the laptop itself?

What about when a thief steals something? Wouldn’t this defeat the purpose of hiding an airtag on that item if they can find it right away?

Only 5% of the world lives in America and it has network provider gatekeepers. It's easier to avoid it.

How about a headphone jack and an expandable storage slot?

If you have ever taken mass transit or a long flight, you don’t want hundreds of notifications of devices following you. Context matters.
