The good ones aren't much more reasonable than a MacBook Pro. Premium laptops tend to cost the same no matter who makes them.

And most of them have shitty touchpads. Apple excepted, of course.

That's not really accurate; a similarly specced XPS 13 is several hundred dollars cheaper than my laptop. But Apple is certainly winning the touchpad game, you're right about that.

You've proved his point. Similar spec with some components, but the Apple machine costs a few hundred more because other components are better than the XPS.
