Can't do much better than a MBP imo
Feels bad to not use Linux but the trackpad, gestures, and overall UX on mb are hard to beat
One downside is virtualization support seems to be better on x86 but that's a rather niche use case
- AI4Ric 2y agoI've noticed that MacBook users rarely complain about their devices, but would you say they are worth the price? MacBook Pros are quite pricey, especially since the base model comes with just 8GB of RAM, which I believe is not enough. A good model could be close to $3,000, right?
- Engineering-MD 2y agoI do, I went from a MacBook to a dell XPS and I just didn’t enjoy using it nearly as much. The hardware is great, and the benefit of the silence of operation is hard to overstate. The software may not gel with you which is the biggest barrier but I like it.
- matrix87 2y agoThe 8GB thing is annoying but you can get a good one for under 2k. also if you have a .edu email you can get 10% off the new chips are good enough I could only see someone getting a 3k one if they're doing a bunch of video editing or something
