I’m just curious if it’s because there was a particular app or a workflow that motivated you to get a MacBook? Or just the Apple ecosystem?

Genuinely just curious.

    Where to start?
    - Supported long term (many years of OS updates).
    - OS-wide unified smooth scrolling, zooming, back forward gestures.
    - Awesome touchpad still unmatched in precision by Windows Precision Touchpads
    - Additional multi touch gestures and actions with BetterTouchTool
    - So many cool continuity features, use iPhone as a camera, iPad as secondary screen etc.
    - Unified calling/facetime/messages across all devices at the carrier level (not tethered to phone)
    - Battery life much better than competition
    - Run 4 4k screens plus laptop screen with “Max” chip
    - 400Mbps memory bandwidth with “Max” chip (super fast machine!)
    - DEVONthink (OCR PDF file cabinet document system with iOS apps and synchronization).
    - Apple photos synchronizing everything to all devices.
    - Never worry about a single software update bricking my laptop. Never worry about maintenance/longevity. 4 Macbook pros each lasting 9+ years at current rate (I buy once every 5 years and SO gets hand-me-downs, very economically viable, everyone is happy).
    - THREE FINGER DRAG with the touchpad!!!
