Title: 4 maddeningly fragile reasons why Apple MacBook owners sometimes irk Windows laptop lovers
Post by: Redaktion on December 06, 2021, 16:42:05
For the layperson there may be little difference between owning a Windows-based laptop or choosing a MacBook notebook from Apple. But for those a bit more in the know, there is sometimes a bubbling cauldron of caustic vitriol just waiting to spill out of a hardcore laptop user when confronted by a stereotypically smug Apple fanboy or fangirl. Readers operating Linux on their laptop can look away now.

"You will not believe number 3!". I really expected more from the Notebookcheck. Do you really need to post these BuzzFeed worthy articles? You are alienating people that are actually interested in hardware.

I have a mbp  and xps2in1. Flip the screen over and write in onenote or just touch the screen in the shop. The 13inch dell is the size of a 12in as there is a very narrow bezel. Stop this mac pc bs each has interesting features I dig using my iPad Pro as a second monitor. Macs also have way to big of a min font size and massive bezels, chins and notches. Xps used to have a nose cam issue. Xps has maglev keyboard good except for the space bar is stiff imo. Apple speakers i like better than dells.

This is the saddest fanboy article I've encountered in the last 40 years.

Had a MacBook once, traded it for a ThinkPad a week later. Lack of software support, glossy screens, and form over function design makes fruit products a failure for productivity.

zeros and once are zeros and once.
I use an iphone and have a 16 intel I9 2019 macbook pro from work.
I tend to use my surface 7 for almost everything that does not need power and my ryzen 3950 64gb bunch of Sabrent 4gb SSD for when I need the power.
Here is the thing. When it comes to software, I can care less what I use.
But when it comes to file management and desktop windows interface "snap" Apple is stuck back in 1995.
While I use apple for some light file management, I use windows for critical work.
I use Dell Mobile Connect which helps with the IMessage integration.
The only think I am missing is the map sync.

Lol, this article is hilarious.

The amount of butthurts below are the proof. Geez guys just chill out. No one really cares if you love MacBook or Windows machine.

I am the guy that has both (even had Linux notebook before) - PC with Ryzen and Win 11 for more performance-related tasks and gaming and MacBook on the go for presentations with clients etc.

You're almost right...those of us running Linux turn away so you don't see us laughing at you.
