I wouldn't be so sure about that... in particular, unified memory, large caches, excellent CPU performance and TBDR GPUs and high-performance AA will most likely make it surprisingly capable for CAD.
You may be right Leman, but I think the issue is for people like myself that the developers of the app’s we use are unlikely to update them for AS quickly.
Most of the software already runs like a dog on a Mac, so my faith in Rosetta is limited to fix anything.
I have already bought my PC. It’s a tool that is really benefitting my work output and as such am now looking at a HP Z workstation laptop. The same apps in windows fly, and as this is all for my livelihood, I am not risking the business on maybe’s.
Will just see how all this pans out. Hardware is cheap really for business and my licences are cross platform so it’s not a big deal to be platform agnostic.
I much prefer the Mac to pc but in the end of the day the CAD apps in windows fly and they don’t currently on a Mac. Given the market share it is highly unlikely they will anytime soon.
I just have to face reality, a PC is better for my business.
