I have been watching my wife wrestle with the slop bucket which is win11. I refuse to move off Windows 10.

But I'm changing jobs, and that means a new work laptop. I'm actually at the point I'm debating letting them give me.... a mac.
Oh god.

I had a MacBook pro for a previous job and it was the nicest laptop I've ever used. I actually had a windows VM for the few things that didn't work.

I had a 17" Mac pro when they used intel chips so you could dual boot and loved it. I still have the disc drive in a USB housing for the 2 times a century I need a disc drive. This was during the Vista period and Balmer's baby made a lot of people jump ship.

I took it with me to a security intro course (as applied to electricians ) near DC where it said you had to have 100% windows. Another guy who could not read I guess was trying to use their software through VM and it would not work. Everyone was looking to me but I'm like fuck that man I'm 100% dual booted. While they were trying to fix his shit I took control of the camera and started looking around the room. Also , ewwww Win 8. I 100% passed on that shit. Tried a beta on a spare machine on it's own HDD. When I could not even figure out how to turn it off I googled it on my main rig , powered down , removed the HDD and never turned it on again.

IIRC at the time it was all work would give me a license to. Either way the MacBook rules.
