> Not only they are more powerful than comparable Apple hardware at the same hardware price point[0]
replyAllow me to doubt. Results vary between specific scenarios (gaming or other GPU intensive tasks being an obvious example), but the raw performance of Apple silicon for the price is unmatched.
Someone failed to read my last paragraph only to leave a comment.
replyI don't understand why you would say that. Your last sentence doubles down on how the bang-for-the-bucks is worse with Apple and I disagree with this. You'd have to spend more money on a x86 CPU to have the same power.
replyI live in a country where there is no market for a decent business laptop with good support (like a P1) and everything is plasticy or RGB-laden tat.
replyI was kind of forced onto a mac as it was the only thing that had decent-enough support or I could buy an identical new one and restore a backup on, without having to use something grey market
Unless it's a very specific hardware, most Linux distros will boot up fine from the same disk image on different machines or even inside a VM.
replyThat doesn't seem to be a common situation though, having access to premium Apple hardware, and not business laptops.
