It depends on :
1. Your Budget?
2. What types of tasks do you intend to do on the Laptop?

I prefer using Win on PC and Macbook as a laptop. Also, I have an iPhone so the ecosystem between my phone and laptop is friendly. Also, considering maybe changing my PC OS to Linux.

Not with apple silicon (natively) though. Parallels does work but I have heard bad things about it (like the machine getting overheated) and I didn’t have the courage to try it out.
Why even bother with windows though, if you are used to mac? Windows doesn’t have anything that macs don’t have. Windows is a security hell as well.

I can live with the “costly” comment although mac minis are the best in the price range for what they can deliver. Same goes for mac pros as well to be honest.
However, this perception that in mac you have to pay for everything, is simply wrong and opinionated.
I have two macs. 90% of the softwares I use are free. The rest 10% are paid even on windows. Good part is that mac already comes with a bunch of awesome softwares completely free. You might not need to buy some softwares like you are used to on windows.
So please, don’t say these lol. Or please show me a case where a software is free on windows, but paid on macs.

Well you gotta try it first. I’m using parallels on Apple silicon and haven’t noticed any such issues so far. Windows 11 runs real smooth but that’s all the windows you can run well as for now. Maybe in the future Microsoft would release more windows versions with ARM support. There can be many use case where windows is needed though.Not with apple silicon (natively) though.
