@merlindiavova funny people do that... I've never seen dweeb written down 😅

I agree, you cannot compare a Mac with a £600 laptop. However, as you hint, Apple gear is overpriced, and you can get a comparable computer for, maybe not £600, but around the price of a Mac.

Sorry, in my last comment I meant to write "but around HALF the price of a Mac." My last laptop was hardware-wise comparable with a MBP, but the price was around half, £1100, plus I had to buy a £100 SSD.

@stormwise I bought a lenovo workstation Intel Xenon processor, 32GB of ram, 512GB ssd 22 inch monitor all in for £1700. Now that is SPECtacular. Whilst Apple wanted over £3000 for similar spec.

But even more do i like these funny youtubers who build a pc which should outlevel mac pro... without double precision GPU or ECC... JESUS!

Most people don't even know the difference between non ECC and ECC ram. Saying that, most people will never need to use it.
But i am sure you can build a computer with a better spec using Xeons and ECC memory for the price of Mac Pro. Might not look as pretty but who cares anyway. -
@Yonah Yeah but I'm speaking about these guys who then put a GTX1080 in it and say thats equal... Wtf. And yes, thats cheaper and would be my goto. If i had the money.
