I’ve owned various MacBooks for the last decade and enjoyed them, but there’s something raw about using Linux directly.</li> <li>It weirdly resembles some kind of stability.</li> </ul> <p>Though I did buy an Nvidia card, which is probably going to be tricky when running Linux, but I’m up for the challenge.</p>
