why on earth would anyone buy that shit if you can buy a macbook pro that literally looks and feels like art vs. a plastic windows laptop?

it used to be that Apple was the pricier option but I guess not anymore

someone who doesn't want apple experience? I really don't need "art" computer if I'm not able to do what I want on it.

Of course a 1000$+ windows laptop is going to look and feel like a low end 300$ one /s

macos desktop aesthetics have regressed, they managed to screw the rounded corners and the colors are too much

macbook m series processor laptops have the camera notch and frankenturd look and feel

thinkpads feel better and the hinge opens all the way
