The only reason to buy a Windows laptop is so you can install Linux on it. If Asahi gets there, the last reason will vanish.

I am pretty happy in Intel+Linux. My device basically lasts all day. It does get kind of hot if I'm running some crunchy numerical code, but that's usually pretty short (assuming the thing I'm running is a laptop appropriate toy problem).
What is even a Windows laptop? A laptop for which Windows has drivers? You buy a laptop for which Windows has drivers in order to install Linux? That doesn’t make sense.

What you mean to say is: you buy a laptop for which Linux has drivers for. Windows is not in this equation, my friend.
