Thank you for the useless opinion that adds nothing. Congrats

And I can’t game on Apple. A mac is a useless brick for the remaining 50% of what I do on a computer.

Adobe and ease of use

I need Adobe, specifically Lightroom, because there’s no alternative. I can’t just stop using it as a semi-professional photographer (I make money from it, just not a ton).

Darktable doesn’t handle large libraries well and also is missing features such as AI remove and integration with photoshop for splitting photos up for social media posts.

At that price I’d honestly just get a MacBook. I know there’s a lot of Apple hate here, but they make phenomenal laptops.

I probably also wouldn’t ever upgrade my laptop, so framework probably isn’t for me anyways.
