Don’t let this happen to your Mac!
Don’t let this happen to your Mac. A simple Safari Browser hijack opens the door to have your Macintosh compromised by disreputable companies masquerading as Apple tech support. The only way to close the page or tab is to Force Quit the application. Unfortunately, a restart of Safari relaunches the same page and locks up the browser. To resolve temporarily you can start Safari safely by first Force Quiting and then launching while holding down the Shift Key. A more permanent resolution can be found in the MacWorld U.K. article – http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/how-clear-safari-cache-3496193/ We can provide remote and onsite support to permanently resolve Mac malware and technical issues.

Negative reaction is knee-jerk. “Any negative reaction on social media is knee jerk. If you look at the pricing from yesterday, at every price point with the new Macs, there are speed increases in processor, memory, and graphics.
“There still are going to be holes in their product line to take issue with but I don’t think pricing is one of them.
“Apple has never catered to the low-end market, looking to produce sub-$1K Macs.
