At least you have an option. I'd take a Macbook Pro/Ultra w/e over my Dell laptop any day. I'd prefer Linux but no to that too. Our company is Dell laptops and Windows only. That's it. I'm sure our MDM software could work on Mac/Linux but every time I've asked they've said no.
Brutal, i worked in b4 consulting before. They had Macs but you basically had to know someone to fight for it on your behalf.
I feel your pain, i struggled with a dell craptop for years. I swear to god, those things are designed to be awful.
(Although, shortly before i left i saw the new ones they were handing out which had Ryzen CPUs and actually looked pretty decent, but idk how well they worked because i left obv)
