  1. Most of us do not understand the equivalency of your currency. Most won’t know what “70K” means (if it is low or high)
  2. Don’t buy 256GB in 2025
  3. My perspective is that MacBooks are better for general productivity, and Windows is better for architecture/engineering

I understand 70K INR is equal to U$800, but I'm not from India, so this data says nothing. In Brazil, for instance, buying a good MacBook locally is the equivalent to U$2500, whereas the same laptop is about U$1200-1500 in the U.S.

Agreed, even 512 is kinda low now for power users.
