      You may not like it but Apple’s choices produce performant hardware and their laptops have had better battery life than other HW for what feels like well more than a decade. It could very well be harder to repair but I’ve had a ton of Mac’s and none have required repair.

        I have 110 dell 5420 AIO PC’s and fifteen 2019 mac AIO. I have had exactly one board failure, two screen failures and two nvme failures on the dells since 2019.

        The 2019 dell AIO have had four bad screens which cost way more than the Dells to replace not counting extras like tape kits to reattach them. I’ve had five with bad ram. You have to completely disassemble them to change the ram. I’ve also had two of the macs develop non memory related failures. All of these were problems I had to fix after they went out of warranty. While they were in warranty I had one screen failure and one memory failure. So please tell me how good they are. I’m sure I will overlook the shit show time sink they represent for me to give your experience precedence over mine

          That isn’t a gross overreaction at all. You seem like a delight to be around.
