And yes for a few really amazing stuff like security which is by the way much better than windows and the sheer performance during multiple tasking and smoothness in performance a MacBook is lite years ahead of Windows and Linux. It is ironically accessibility which lags behind as compared to other OSs. Regards.

But if I can’t use complicated PDFs and navigate them, the Mac is a no starter. So I guess it’s all about what you need access to maybe.
