Maybe they prefer macOS or need it for iOS development.
Also, there really isn't anything out there like a MacBook Air. Thin, light, fast, fanless (silent), and truly all day battery life.
- Aerbil313 3y agoDamn Apple. Macs have no single drawback except repairability, not even vendor lock-in (you can flash Asahi). That’s it. I’m going for a Mac except the Framework I previously planned for. Single digit battery life shouldn’t be thing in 2023.

- lockhouse 3y agoThe lock-in for that is on Nvidia's side, not Apple's.

- lockhouse 3y agoCan I use CUDA without an Nvidia graphics card? That was my point, just like Apple they’ve locked this functionality to their hardware. Which is fine, they developed it, it’s their right to do so. I’m well aware of the limitations of discrete graphics on Macs.
