> The degree to which Apple has kinda just “won” laptops is nuts to me.

It's nuts that the entire rest of the industry basically has own-goaled Apple into a dominant position. Apple's playbook:

1. Model-year build stability over faster go-to-market on new components. 2. Better build quality. 3. Better battery life. 4. Better display, especially in value models.

I'm leaving OS and UI out of the discussion.



Other manufacturers cannot use MacOS, and have little power to improve Windows performance.
