    Rectangle allows you to window snap easily, the microsoft outlook app is one of the best email clients for mac, Microsoft edge has Vertical tabs and bing ai chat which can summarize webpages, and stage manager makes managing app windows easy

    In a similar situation! I got the 512gb 10-core model refurbished paid 815. Windows is still good for lots of things but Mac takes the cake for day to day use.

    Also just purchased the same model today and hope to get it tomorrow. However I just found out it doesn’t support Bootcamp which I was hoping to use for dual booting Windows for a software I use for a game I play. Gutted!! Wondering is parallels would work but I’ve read that it has limitations on silicone chips such as directx so the game not play anyway.
