They are the best at making laptop hardware, and to my knowledge you can run what you like on it. Mac OS is good, but I also like Fedora's Atomic distros, such as Bluefin-dx.

OP said Windows support is a requirement. Also, Macs have that stupid control/option/command keyboard layout thing.

Run Windows in Parallels, it’s actually faster than a real Windows based laptop. Sad really.

Ah didn't realise you couldn't dual boot Windows on a Mac, sorry.
