I live in a country where there is no market for a decent business laptop with good support (like a P1) and everything is plasticy or RGB-laden tat.

I was kind of forced onto a mac as it was the only thing that had decent-enough support or I could buy an identical new one and restore a backup on, without having to use something grey market

Unless it's a very specific hardware, most Linux distros will boot up fine from the same disk image on different machines or even inside a VM.

That doesn't seem to be a common situation though, having access to premium Apple hardware, and not business laptops.
