Bingo. It doesn't take much time to release a Mac from your DEP & MDM. There are several used Mac buyback companies and if you are doing 2-4 year rotation. You can easily get $50-500 depending on a lot of things.

Easiest option? Set a flat price on a make/model and offer the employees a buy back of their own device as is. You be surprised how many people will buy a 3+ year old MacBook pro for $400-600 USD. And how many people take better care of their work laptop during those 3+ years of service knowing they could eventually own it personally.

Blind loyalty is the Hallmark of Religion and Conservatives.

Their profits are already insane high they could easily still make profits with the same price point but being built in a more developed and educated country. They could even lower the cost of their devices by a lot. Problem is they want the most profit they can get. And their customers have proven time and time again they don't care the cost of human lives or their paycheck they want apple. The modern day Blood Diamond.

Discord did absolutely zero marketing for business purposes. Most people in the industry looking never even heard of them.

Zoom had voip that made WFH easier and far cheaper when it came to businesses needing to find a better solution to Cisco. Zoom video for 1k+ people for big business announcements or major conferences.

Zoom only competition was Cisco and Microsoft Teams. And if your company is using Slack over Teams they ain't going to want to switch.

Krisp the audio thing discord has by default that many people don't even know about. They actually sell themselves as a separate app for businesses to deploy that pairs directly with Zoom.
