You can get desktop which would be more powerful for even less, how is this particularly different?
The Windows laptop will likely be bulky, have a terrible touchpad and sound like a portable jet engine (as long as it’s Intel at least).
- spookie 4y agoI was simply answering the question made by my post's parent. As for the rest, touchpads have been getting better. Both in hardware and drivers. The latter is true in Linux land, at least. I don't use Windows, so I wouldn't know. Unless it's under full load, and you've got a GPU mux switch, I don't think your fans will sound as a jet engine either. But either way, at that price, yeah... It'll be bulkier than a Mac. Aaand your fans will spin. Aaand your battery life will be worse, 'cause CISC lol. Still miles better than carrying a desktop though. I'm happy for Apple, in all honesty. RISC is the future. I just hope that bigger and better open firmware projects keep coming, so I can keep tinkering (and having no x86 license to deal with, it does seem that future is bright). Unfortunately, x86 just has better support right now.
