Really? You think the same Macs that maintain silence by overheating have "stellar" build quality?
Seriously, go watch Louis Rossmann's channel. You'll soon see how terrible the build quality in Macbooks is. Just because it's encased in aluminium doesn't mean it's well made.
- ubermonkey 6y agoYes, in my personal experience (20+ years of personal and organizational Mac hardware), their build quality has been well in excess of everyone but golden-age Thinkpads. - They work a long time - They tolerate travel and other "heavy use" scenarios much better than most other laptops - I've only rarely had to resort to warranty support or repair, which is 100% not the case with even the higher-end Dell (e.g.) machines I've bought for organizations.
