The only potential concern I have is in considering how much casual PC market is left in the industry. I thought these users moved on to mobile, ergo leaving enthusiasts and professionals behind years ago as the remaining users. It might also cannibalize sales of their more powerful laptops because: who are the laptop buyers now? Where are they? Surely Apple did a market study, and they look set to completely dominate whatever’s left.
If I wasn’t going to use Linux, it would be Mac. Quite compelling despite the lower memory because we are in an expensive market.
