Not all that bad, but there are minuses.

I have been using the company-issued laptop for work-related activities for about half a year, and I still don't get what they find in them. When compared to Macbooks, Windows laptops offer significantly more steady performance and enjoyable user experiences for the same price. Docker, a recent breakthrough, renders all this Unix pipework obsolete. Perhaps justifiable for individuals who rely solely on Apple products. As for the rest, it's an extremely divisive option because of the costs involved.

Pros

Gorgeous and pleasantly tactile Great picture, killer in-built audio

Cons

The system becomes unresponsive after seven days without a restart. It gets too hot; it's not practical to wear it on your feet regardless of the amount of load. The touchbar is useless and makes no sense at all. A shortage of ports Extremely hefty (far more so than my similarly sized Windows gaming laptop). It constantly tries to slip out, and the awkward shape makes it impossible to wear without a cover.
