I have the most up to date MacBook Pro. Fast as all get out with the SSD.
The battery lasts at least all day.
I’ve had it since 2013!

Actually no. Microsoft Surfaces are. . . and Microsoft Surface Books. The 13" 128GB MS Surface Book starts at $1499 while the 13" 256GB Apple MacBook Pro starts at $1449, but the equivalent MacBook Pro with 128GB drive is only $1199.

And a MacBook Air can be purchase brand new for just $999.

That Microsoft Surface Book comes with only a 30 day trial of MS Office, after expiration after which you have to subscribe annually or purchase out right, while the Apple comes with a lifetime suite of Office applications, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, which work across all Apple devices, as well as a lot more productivity software included with the purchase price. Not so the Windows machine.
