If it's Intel then it might not be fully down to Windows 11. The PC laptops are universally crap. I had a few latest ones, Ultra 9 and they are atrocious. Experience reminds me using a netbook in early 2010s.

I would refuse to work anywhere without a Mac. If x86 then it would have to be linux, as that would be passable (apart from fan noise).

Panther Lake and Lunar Lake are pretty good I'd say. Intel has been improving.

The Lunar Lake and Arrow Lake platforms are finally really good again, comparable to AMD. Fast and power efficient. Before Lunar Lake they were pretty much crap, I agree.
