I may not buy a new MBP when this one dies. Realizing I'm starting to avoid working on laptop primarily because the Apple experience is no longer a *pleasant* one for working in a 2021 digital environment. The hardware perf and build quality is not enough to make up for dated UX.

I'm currently planning on switching back to MBP from a surface with the new 2021 model because processing power is so important to me.

you're doing genomics and machine learning right? so you do need serious power... I need decent power (for graphics interests I'm getting into) but not killer levels... UX is more important to me.

I'm actually currently playing with much less hungry apps, mainly front end development, but it's still a preference. The results people are seeing with the M1 are crazy good and the new model is supposed to improve on that.
They're also supposed to be getting rid of the touchbar
