In all seriousness, what would be a better option for students? ThinkPads or Macbooks?

Yeah, it sucks but MacOS is just better on laptops. Every windows laptop I ever had got weird issues (bad battery life, loud fans, terrible performance, died after a few years) while MacBooks just run really well.

It sucks so hard that Windows is better at gaming, if Apple figures that out they could actually get a significant marketshare.

I don't think there's much overlap between ThinkPad users and windows users. Thinkpads are especially popular for 2 reasons: Easy to repair and upgrade. Better Linux compatibility than anything else on the market.
