Hard to say! I’ve been in this position so many times, but everyone else seems to screw something up in a big way when trying to compete with the Macbook. They don’t give thunderbolt, they put rattling crappy speakers under the keyboard, include a terrible screen, have bad support, giant power supply with old-school DC pin connectors…
As much as I dislike Apple and the Mac isn’t perfect, it’s far better than anything else out there hardware-wise. Seems like maybe Framework is the best mainstream linux laptop these days, unless you want one of the hardened platforms that are a bit more niche.
