At least with an Apple laptop I’ll have hardware and software that are designed to work with each other?\n>\n> What do you think?\n\nYour CPU vendor covers microcode updates, and your laptop vendor covers your bios firmware updates. Apple is not that special if you don’t pay too much attention to their press releases. They’re thorough and consistent within their priorities, I’ll give them that.\n\nLinux in it’s current state catches up with recent hardware releases pretty quick, especially on a stable rolling distribution.\n\nThere were quite a few similar discussions here with some valuable feedback (vendor choice, HSI level etc.). Please take your time and look through them.",
