Only if you want to take all the proprietary baggage and telemetry that comes with Apple platforms by default. A Lenovo T15g with a 16gb 3080 mobile doesn’t do too badly and will run more than just Windows.

Still got my 48GX, 49G, 19BII and 28S. The 49G is the only that is unusable (rubber buttons? Really?). 49G aside, they all are good enough for use although probably no longer usable in some of their intended uses (re: any formal tests that

Consider making the kind of EVs that they would want to buy, even if they’re not the kind that fit some compliance profile or exist as the dominant “option”? I’d not mind something akin to a modernized take on the Crown Vic, or something th
