Yeah but Windows

Tom Warren for The Verge:

Microsoft is confident that it finally nailed the transition to Arm chips — so confident that, this time around, the company spent an entire day pitting its new hardware against the MacBook Air.

I love watching Microsoft try to convince people that their Surface laptops are better than Apple’s MacBooks based purely on specs, as if the operating system has nothing to do with it. They’re a non-starter for so many because they run Windows: a bloated, creepy, ad-riddled mess.
