Same. They even tricked it out with an upgraded CPU and RAM.

I will admit that there was a steep learning curve to switching to Mac for work.

Our ThinkPads are solid.

I’m 14 months past my lease return with no replacement in sight due to the chip shortage.

MM provides a potato and somehow I’m still productive

herr yeah Big Macs let’s go

I have a M1 Mac Pro from Accenture and no one in IT knows how to do anything on it, so I got workarounds for vpn and random admin software. But for everything else it’s banging.

MacBook Pro 👏

I like my Surface

BCG’s gets the X1 carbon? Hell that’s my personal laptop….😳

I think EngProd maintains internal tooling but regardless who does it they do a phenomenal job.

MacBook Pro here, liking it

“Dell 🤯”

Joining D and I was told I’ll be getting a windows laptop. Is there a way I can request for a MacBook? I have been using MacBook my entire professional career and I am pretty comfortable using it.

Any firm. You just have to have a business case to get a better one and get it approved.

MacBook Pro 16”; not M1 as this is 2019 model

I got a thinkpad core i7 and i am such a fan

X1 Carbon

Curious why that’s important🤔

M1 Mac

I’m at Booz and I have an HP Elitebook 840 G7. I think some folks have MacBooks and Z books depending on their role. I used to have this huge Dell laptop (idk what model) and it was so slow. Finally got an upgrade after complaining to my admin team😅

For those of you with MacBooks, how is working in excel?

You get used to it. Some shortcuts are straight up not available, but most have Mac equivalents
