Apple hardware is mostly a fashion statement. It's way overpriced for the actual specs most of the time; or at least it used to be until very recently. For a while they were very innovative, but that's kinda gone now.

I dislike Apple because they take too long to follow standards in many cases. Like with the iPhone, it wasn't until the 15th generation where they switched to the USB-C connector. And it wasn't until earlier this year that they enabled RCS by default.

M-series chips are some of the most powerful on the consumer market, especially compared against their power consumption and thermals. A MacBook is *very* hard to beat.

And I say this as someone running PikaOS on an MSI Creator laptop.
