I am sorry, i have a 10th gen dell precision for work. an absolute horror. if i am working on anything development, the fans are just so loud. absolute crap battery life.
if i run same vscode dotnetcore workload on m1 air, that thing lasts atleast 10hours on battery and no heat whatsover. better, the compile time is usually faster than 3800 bucks worth dell precision (on a 1200 bucks laptop)
