Performance is good, but not great, and, again, is trounced by most of its equivalents, even the Surface Book.

Sure, you can find an equivalent priced laptop that will beat the MBPro at one metric, but it’ll fall short on others. It’s faster but it has a cheap case , crappy trackpad, shit screen or terrible battery life, etc.

There are very few laptops out there that are as good in every metric as a MBPro. It is simply the best total package.

Locking me in to what and how? It’s a laptop, a tool, not a religion. I don’t give a fuck about any of that shit as long as the OS gets out of the way, stuff just works and I can get on with my job.

More like €4400 and it’s used heavily for 8+ hours a day as a development machine. It’s 4 years old by now (M1 Max, 64GB) and it still handles everything I can throw at it without breaking a sweat.

Cheap laptops are nothing but trouble, in the end it’ll cost you more in replacements and lost productivity.

MacBooks are frikkin amazing though. There is nothing in the PC world that even comes close.

Why would you buy this garbage?

That’s fucking insane.

Here, if you’re sick you get sick leave. There is no real limit other than after 2 years of illness you basically go on disability instead of sick leave.

What if your illness takes longer than the amount of days you have, you are just expected to show up at the office in your hospital bed?

How does that even work? How can you transfer sick days? It’s not like you have a fixed amount of days you are allowed to be sick, right… right?
