At first it looked great then I saw the track-pad off center which would drive me crazy and the side view which makes it already look dated.

That's cool but I'm a Mac person. I left Windows for personal use decades ago.

So predictable with the negative Samsung comments. Yet people will check to see if they have the better Samsung panel

https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/2018-pro-users-do-u-have-lg-or-samsung-screen.2128760/

or hope the rumored BOE displays are as good as the Samsung ones. Or better yet, hope the iPhone 15 they plan to buy uses an actual Samsung display.

I wouldn't trust a PC from Samsung.
That's what everybody said when I got mine. The machine lasted solid 8 years with no problem. It is still around in the hands of a young cousin.


Plus Windows is garbage now.
Why do you say so? Windows 11 is kind of annoying compared to W10, but I would not call it garbage, it has gotten pretty good actually.
