In the two years since my switch, I worked to find the absolute best laptops money could buy, trying to compare anything that might be a great MacBook alternative. The company refreshed its MacBook Air after years of requests only to stunt its hardware worse than before, and while we're slowly seeing higher-end Pro hardware arrive-the refreshed Mac Mini is probably the most exciting development in years-the stream of hardware flaws and poorly-designed keyboards continues. In 2019, the state of Apple's macOS devices is a disaster. I'll be honest: it wasn't an easy switch at first, but as time went by it's become clear it was the right choice. Two years ago, I made the jump from macOS to Windows despite being a long-time Apple fan.
