My wife, kids and I have slowly been replacing all our Apple products over the past couple of years. We've replace the kid's MacBook Airs with MS Surface and my MBP was replaced with an MSI laptop with proper dedicated GPU.

The decision to change was quite natural. The kids like the Surface and how it was a touch screen, but could also be used as a laptop that they could do school work on.

Moving to Windows was easy for me once WSL was introduced. I no longer needed OSX to do development as I am now able to do everything I was doing on my MBP on my MSI in WSL.

I still can't believe that Apple has yet to come out with a laptop with a touch screen that isn't an iPad. The touchbar is very clever, but I never use it.

The last couple of straws for me for moving off of Apple at 10+ years was the MBP. Touch Bar, shitty keyboard, and no proper USB ports....I hate having to keep dongles at the ready.

For me, at least, the magic that was Apple died when Steve died. Now they just push out product and services and nothing that can be considered "magic" or unique.
