WanderingInDigitalWorlds, to linux

Ultimately, when I do purchase a Mac Mini, I have a safety net for being able to experiment with freely. It's easier to experiment when failure doesn't cause any significant issues in one's life. General anxiety is a struggle of mine, so doing sensible things to mitigate the intensity of anxiety helps me take chances I wouldn't risk ordinarily. The PC can become my Linux experiment, I can follow the documentation about Linux to increase my comfort levels with Linux.

Why not start on a cheap raspberry pi or in a virtual machine?

Hmmm, doing almost everything in virtual machines myself. But yes, I can understand you are curious about MacOS. No longer my cup of tea, but I understand its appeal.
