I am in the UK, and I've only found startups willing to spend money on developer hardware. The larger companies seem to pick up low-end Lenovos for developers, and better i7 Lenovos for those managers who would never use them.
Though I would gladly dump the MacBook Pro 16" I currently have to use for work in an instant for a high-end Lenovo/Dell. Apart from MacOS being extremely flakey these days (why does Spotlight only seem to pop up 50% of the time), I don't understand why they don't provide proper ISO and instead give us some form of ANSI that has the dancing alien (§) dedicated key, and why they hide the # which as a Pro developer I use all the time.
That it also spends its entire time overheating so it burns my lap is just the icing on the cake.
No, switching the charging did nothing for me or any of my colleagues.
But when I used a MacBook Pro about 10 years ago the machine overheated all the time and burnt my lap. They are just a shitty design, but they look pretty.
