It is interesting that one of their examples is a "community repair fair", they want to market a sheen of social responsibility without actually taking part themselves.

Lowkey wish their laptops would be as they used to be. Being able to swap RAM or hard drives is so basic but so useful.

I have a mac, absolutely love it, hate windows and yet my next laptop will be windows because of that.

You don't realize how much it matters until it does, and then it changes everything. Always having to carry an external drive just because my email takes 150gb of the 256gb MacBook storage is even more annoying than windows puting candy crush saga on the start menu.

If you hate Windows, you should really consider Linux instead. Gnome is quite enjoyable and can be relatively easily made to behave similarly to the macos DE. Fedora works pretty well OOTB on most hardware. If you buy as Frame.work[1] laptop, Fedora will install and run very well.
