Macs are usually more expensive than Windows PCs. But finally, some real options are starting to emerge. There are still plenty of ugly Windows PCs out there, depending on the make and model. Plus, a lot of manufacturers like Dell and Asus have taken their design cues from Microsoft and generally upped their game, releasing Windows laptops and tablets that are at least a little easier on the eyes.
Plus, the Surface Book's screen detaches to become a laptop on its own. More momentously, Microsoft released its first-ever laptop: The Microsoft Surface Book, a gorgeous $1,499 laptop that the company claims is twice as fast as a MacBook Pro.
In just the last couple of months, Microsoft introduced the Surface Pro 4, a svelte device that comes closer than ever before to the promise of a tablet that can replace a laptop. The company is all about the details, even the internals of its computers are beautifully constructed. Apple spends years working on how its products look.
