Well, when I updated from previous MacOS to Monterey on my 2016 MBP, it also bricked my Mac. It was a pain to get Apple to recognize and replace at their own cost, but I know many others that had same issue but were out of luck trying to get Apple to replace their bricked pcs. Those idiotic updates that also include firmware are just awful. I’m here HOPING for a HUGE MASSIVE LAWSUIT against Apple for this. This is THE ONLY WAY they will try to fix how those updates are done.,(reply>), begone bot
