      Yeah but how do you wade through the fields of bullshit to find a decent PC laptop? PC manufacturers have like 200 SKUs.

      Like I go to dell.com, what’s the best option? Inspiron? Precision? Latitude? Vostro? Which of those lines is “premium”? And each of those lines has like 4 models each. And that’s just one manufacturer.

      But ultimately you buy one of those machines, bring it home, boot up windows and get served ads in the fucking start menu.

      Meanwhile I bought the lamest laptop in Apple’s lineup for my daughter, and the thing is solid aluminum with a great display, huge trackpad, great battery and lightning fast processor.

      But then Windows sucks ass.

      Also, every other OEM in the world makes hardware as good as Apple? No. Maybe some, but definitely not even most.
