Way overpriced compared to other laptops on the market and the specs are barely comparable. Windows/Mac - it doesn't matter anymore. Both platforms are great. You can get an equal laptop running Windows for almost $1000 cheaper that is so much closer to what you might want since there is more choice on the PC side..These things also break like Tiffany Crystal. So you're in for at least $700 repair if something goes wrong.  The case also marks and chips like wet clay. You’ll need a protective case unless you want it to have battle scars.  A decent case/cover is at least $80.  So add $100 to your bill.Also - did I mention that you CANNOT upgrade these at all. EVERYTHING is soldered to the logic board.  No Ram upgrade later on - no hard drive upgrade later on. And consider this - no matter what goes wrong with your laptop, the only way to fix this thing will be an entire mother board replacement - $1200-$1500 anyone?  That basically means you are purchasing an unrepairable machine and Apple will just want to sell you a new one for another 3-4000 dollars 3 years from now.  Oh yeah - And they raised the price on AppleCare - it's almost $400 now.And performance - don't think for a second  you will get your money's worth out of the processor.  They throttle this baby like you wouldn't believe.  The moment it gets warm the machine slows itself down so it doesn't overheat.  So you're 6 core i9 runs more like a quad core i7 and such on downward.And only Thunderbolt 3/USB-C ports?  Prepare to have a big bag of dongles with you - and at average $50 per dongle and you will need one for USB and Ethernet at least - add $100 to your order.I think that's it.  But go ahead and buy it only if you have to.Apple used to make great laptops. But alas - nothing good lasts forever.
