I have a confession to make – I’ve never owned a Windows laptop. My portable computing odyssey began back in 2006 with a first-gen Apple MacBook in Stay Another Daywhite polycarbonate, and has since evolved to not one but three MacBook Airs of various ages and specs running all at once.
By the end of the decade I’d descended so deeply into the macOS well, I’d become too lazy to contemplate climbing out and trying another ecosystem. Fast-forward to today, however, and a growing reliance on G Suite and Office 365 has got me wondering whether to go down the Windows or Chromebook route.
Fanning the flames of indecision further is the fact that, in this age of productivity, PC laptops have diversified to such an extent that it’s now easier than ever to find the perfect portable to match your lifestyle.
In this month’s issue we’ve assembled six laptop setups to meet the needs of Stuffreaders, whether you’re preparing to go back to school, backto university, or back to bed because you work from home… like a boss. There’s no shortage of PC foxiness to pick from either – adorning the cover is the Asus ZenBook Pro. It’s got a seductive second screen. In the trackpad. I’ve never seen anything like it before and I want it like crazy.
