I couldn't imagine buying any laptop other than a Mac because the performance to battery life ratio on everything else is awful. Plus if you want a UNIX system, it's an easy buy.

After owning an Apple ARM laptop I'd never go back to anything else.

But is that an Apple thing or an ARM thing?

You clearly haven't used Debian.

I've used a number of different Linux distros (including Debian) on laptops over the years. Although most recently my XPS 15 was running Arch.
