Mac will always sell more because they don't last as long as any pc.
Apple is peak capitalism, literally designing everything to be impossible to fix by a third party and then calling it 'user safety'.

does it launch directly into fedora or into macos and though some hack/vm into fedora?

also according to their own site it doesnt support the fingerprint or video output which is very bad for a laptop.

i would still consider it if it supported their new chips like M4, apples hardware seems genuinely an amazing offering for the price especially in the cheapest macbook airs

95% of people complaining about macs on this website are videogame manchildren that want to put 100 big boobies anime mods on their skyrim or play the latest gacha anime girls in skimpy clothing gacha game
or they are just poor third worlders
since I'm not a child that plays videogames nor a poor third worlder macbooks are great for me

Those numbers can be misleading. If you want a Mac, you have to buy from Apple. If you want a PC, you can buy each part separately, and that doesn't get counted as a "shipment".

My lemonade stand experienced a remarkable 200% growth in customers last week, with six customers this week, up from two. This growth surpasses the combined growth of Apple, NVIDIA, and Walmart during the same period. Who’s ready to invest in this promising venture?

is your lemonade stand a trillion-dollar corporation? because otherwise your 'gotcha' is plainly retarded, because they are comparing two trillion dollar businesses and one is significantly outperforming the other, It's not just about a big percentage of a tiny corner stand

I've never owned an Apple product in my entire life. Right now, the people who shit on new macbooks are bad faith arguers. Macbooks with the arm shit, massive battery life, unified memory to run LLMs are provably superior than X86 winblows laptops
you have to play mental gymnastics to think that somehow a gaming laptop with gpu and 4 hour battery life gimped are better than a macbook because you can plug it in and do some autistic CUDA shit
they aren't even expensive. 1000 bucks for a 16gb macbook which is more than enough for 99.9 percent of people (you need a workstation build a desktop obviously)
macbooks ARE better now
they just are, I get that you can argue the other side, so could i, but you're being intellectually dishonest which is scummy as fuck

there is no equivalent to macs

macs have:
>soldered SSD/RAM/WLAN
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>when pajeetOS runs out of RAM it swapfile rapes the SSD to death within 3 years
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>when the SSD dies it bricks your entire currybook because the EFI is stored on the soldered SSD to save $0.05
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>components serial numbered and tied to the motherboard to prevent repair and replacement (including battery)
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>riveted keyboard that requires total destruction of the chassis to replace
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>flexgate cables that are so brittle they crack from opening your screen past 90 degrees more than 2 dozen times
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>screens so fucking shit they have over 90ms response times (essentially 10Hz)
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>screen made from pajeet trash glass that cracks from temperature change in seasons or tape over the iBotnet webcam
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>so fire and explosion prone the FAA have banned them from all flights
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>uses phone CPU that's so shit it gets destroyed by decade old i3s from 2017 and can only "compete" by cheating at benchmarks in extreme edge cases with hardware accelerators
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>curryniggers at apploo get so full of sniffing their own currynigger silicon shit they ship currybooks with no fans and they run so hot they melt the keyboard keys
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs

>keyboards with 63.5% failure rate
unheard of on PCs, and yet you curryniggers defend it with "jus werx fer me!"
just because you're in the 36.5% survivor group doesn't make your currynigger trash any good
this list goes on forever
there's no PC laptop as total fucking currynigger shit as crapple's streetshitter books
they are the biggest heaps of steaming currynigger shit in the history of computing second only to curryPhones
