I’m in the market for a new laptop. Preferably under $2000 and have good specs. 16 GB ram minimum and 500 GB SSD minimum. What recommendations does Lemmy have? If more details are needed please specify what and I’ll answer

EDIT: thank you everyone for the answers 🙂 I do not need anymore suggestions

    I’m a Mac guy so my goto answer would always be something from Apple. If I was looking for non-apple hardware though I would look at Framework laptops because lack of upgradability is my biggest peeve about Apple gear.

      I’m eyeing the M1/M2 macs with asahi, but I’m going to let it mature more for a bit before I take the plunge.

        This is like year 3. How much more you think they’re gonna mature?

          The distro (asahi) is still in very early development, gpu acceleration was just recently added. That along with a esoteric architecture, will cause headaches for the uninitiated.

          The macs themselves hardware wise are quite mature, but I can’t for the life of me use MacOS.
