I am with you, but I similarly as the earlier sibling comment disagree Macs are like option 2, and not because of lack of do-it-all quality: just that their choices are suboptimal.

Glossy screens, crappy keyboards, sharp edges, large weight are all single, terrible choices that one has to accept, manage or tune (there was recently a blog post shared where someone files edges on their MacBook; you constantly need to position yourself so light sources are not pointing at the screen...).

They have their good sides, but I am disagreeing that they are the ultimate laptops when they so clearly aren't.
