People with new MBPs - How does the whole kernel panic stuff affect your daily use?
Does it happen often enough to bother your work? Or more like: "I've paid ****llion$$$ for this machines, it's supposed to work perfectly. WTF?????", but other than fact it's overpriced machine and your experience is not "perfect" it is still a solid machine to use for doing daily work? (I do consider the anger justified, seriously for the price they charge for these, they could seriously do better quality control, especially given the fact that these machines are extremely hard to repair... However being angry is not pragmatic sometimes... )
Like I've got a few weird bugs on my current windows machine here and there during last year, but seriously, I'd be crazy to return it because of that. Are these kernel panics in that category or they actually harm your daily usage of the machine?
EDIT:
Those who installed linux on laptops with new hardware, also get some crashes and kernel panics here and there (it was for me at least) but their systems are mostly "stable". Would you describe the crashes on the new systems as similar experience? Or it is really bad?
The reason I am asking this is because I still can cancel (have about a week from now) my order (13 inch / 512 / 16gb / i5), and I am not sure I am not certain I didn't make a mistake by ordering one. Your answer / vote would really help me make the right decision guys.
The BridgeOS thread is too long and I am getting a bit nervous... May be I should just cancel the order and get T480 / Latitude 7490 for portability / Unix experience and stay with Kotlin...
Android is great these days, not sure there is a reason to jump into iOS.
