Starting a new job in a few weeks and have been given the choice between a Mac or a Windows laptop. Similar specs - Mac will be a Macbook Air, M1 chip, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD. Windows is a Thinkpad w/ i7, same RAM/SSD.
Used a MacBook in college back in the day, but have used Windows machines since for work and play. I will not be developing, it's a management role, so mainly Office apps, MS Teams, web browsing.
Word/Excel/etc for Mac used to be terrible, but I understand in recent years MS has done a better job on those. I work w/ multiple monitors and understand that MacOS doesn't have the same windows snap / tiling features natively, but that can be added. The native integration w/ my phone to be able to iMessage on the laptop is appealing for sure. Wondering if there are other pros and cons I'm not thinking about - appreciate your thoughts.
