Ask HN: I need a new laptop are the new M2 MacBooks worth the price?
My beloved 7 year Ubunutu XPS 13 is starting to show its age. Its struggling to run pycharm and docker and I'm lucky if its battery lasts more than 1 hour. It's time to get a new laptop.
I've been looking at what Dell and Apple have to offer and they're both very expensive. I want my next laptop to perform even better than my XPS 13 has.
At the top of my list is the 32GB M2 14" Macbook Pro, it costs ~ £3000. Am I wrong in thinking that a with a machine like this I should get at least 10 years out of it?
I'm very interested to hear what everyone else is using for there personal laptops.
N.B
My employer provides me with a M1 Pro Macbook but there is no way I'm using that for anything but work.
