I always kinda chuckle at articles like this - for a creative individual such as myself that's very locked into Logic Pro X and Final Cut X, and a full-time iOS developer, ditching a Mac would mean losing ~15 years of backwards compatibility for my media, and being stuck with far less-than-ideal virtualization solutions for Xcode.
Even with their pitiful current hardware offerings that almost seem like a direct insult to long-term dedicated fans, I'm still locked into their excellent software.
- elithrar 8y agoAuthor here: of course it’s not a fit for you! I qualified my “yes” with the primary uses for my computer, which doesn’t include any macOS specific software (Sketch was the most recent). If I was using FCPX, Logic or doing iOS development I wouldn’t have opened my editor to write the article ;)
- terramex 8y agoI can see myself switching from FCPX/Motion to Premiere/After Effects quite easily (Premiere is really great nowadays), but I just cannot find a good replacement for Logic Pro. It has it quirks and bugs, its performance is terrible on my 2013 MBP, but I just cannot find any other DAW that lets makes me feel as productive as Logic. Not just productive, it brought fun back to music production for me. Using FL Studio felt like a chore, even when I was quite experienced with it.
