    Thought designers all use Macs?
    Ive previously used 13" MacBooks, currently using 11" iPad.
    Though M.1  macs are getting excellent reviews, I've decided on Win10 laptop- no boot camp etc.
    thanks

    Sorry Dandytf I was responding to HereToday's post about a designer buying a PC.  Yes M1 sounds like a step change in performance.  A Mac Mini might be my next machine . . .

    @Chino
    Employers that require Staff to work from home during Shut Down restrictions.
    And as Chino said, most IT depts for companies would rather people used office supplied equipment - even when working from home
    Which I had been using past year since shut down.
    Latest soon to be new employer asked if I have pc or laptop for Initial few weeks training.
    thanks anyway.
    So, did you spend a grand on a new laptop just for <<Initial few weeks training.>>
    Kind off yes, though wfh purchased Amazon desk is here to stay, though for personal use in a few weeks/months.
    I could very well continue to search part time jobs if possible.
    Thanks
