| I wonder what devs you've met that can't explain this. Personally, I work in an open-plan office. I have lots of Zoom meetings, which I have to do in separate conference rooms, and require having my computer with me. This week I've been at a conference, and I had my laptop with me to get some work done while half-listening to presentations and panels. I also work from home, of course. Also, sometimes I sit in a coffee shop to work. I also sometimes travel to get a change of scenery, and work remotely with my laptop. Also, I sometimes bring my laptop on vacations if there's any chance that I have to attend to an emergency. If I only had a stationary machine, none of the above would be possible. Of course, my MacBook is a "proper PC". When I'm at a real desk, I can plug it into an external monitor and have the full stationary experience. Could I have a "real" stationary Mac for desk work, and a separate laptop for mobility? Sure, but that sounds like a huge pain, as I'd have to keep everything in sync. |
