I find it hard to believe that, outside of work computers, many people would be choosing Windows over Mac or Linux, especially is AI is their goal.

I'm also curious why the comments are turned off for this article unless it is a paid ad for Microsoft.

And how do you consider that a comparable machine? Slow/hot Intel CPU, slow GPU, low-res screen, the ‘upgradable’ RAM can only be upgraded to 32GB (so pretty much useless), slow SSD, weighs more than a MacBook even with the smallest battery option, despite the fact it’s made of plastic. No thunderbolt. It can’t even drive my monitor at 60Hz.

idk what you are on about but ill ask you to point to an apple device which contains this level of functionality(which btw idk what you are on about this is more than a usable machine)on the apple store apple seems to delusionally think even a little wrist band is worth more tho so idk what you'll find https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MX423AM/A/45mm-pride-edition-braided-solo-loop-size-6

A ‘more than usable’ machine that doesn’t even support more than 32GB RAM? That’s not a serious machine, that’s a toy.
