First of all, this is not criticising or taking a cheap shot or really political at all. I am fascinated that a lawyer uses/brings a gaming laptop to trial and I can’t help but think it was contrived as another distraction.
What do y’all think? BTW, how expensive are they generally?
You think she plays League?
Why would you want a Macbook Air though? Why not an LG Gram or a Dell XPS or literally any other laptop in that price range? Lawyers don’t need 5k screens and room filling laptop speakers, and those are the only things Apple consistently beats their competition at.
My guess is that she walked into a computer store and told the guy behind the desk “get me the fastest laptop you have”. Gaming laptops are the fastest laptops out there, easily beating Apple’s lineup for a lower price at the cost of battery life. As long as she can plug in her laptop when she needs to, she’s got her ultra fast computer.
She could get an eGPU for all she cares, she’s not the one carrying that thing around. “Light” is not her biggest concern. Knowing she works with elderly like Trump, the bigger screen may be a big advantage for showing documents; add pixels all you want, but if you often work with people in their 60s it’s not going to matter if you get 1080p or 6k, you just need a screen big enough for their degrading eyes to read the text.
I ran out of popcorn so I decided to ask, why are you guys so intently arguing with OP? He’s either a moron or a troll
Social media recap publications (which are unfortunately quite popular) love posting about “Redditor DESTROYS Trump lawyer” with screenshots. If you don’t debate something that people with less knowledge about computers may find plausible, you risk getting this bullshit spread far and wide across the internet.
There’s also a massive cult of personality around Apple and there are definitely a lot of people who think Macbooks make someone “more professional” so I’m not entirely convinced OP is a troll. It could just be a lack of insight combined with an attempt to make fun of Trump’s incompetent lawyer, and there’s some hope that this lack of insight can be corrected at least.
