Hi, With my batch 7 prep mail out, it’s getting in my mind again. And I’m still debating between the 14” m3 pro 18 512 model and the Framework 13 R7 with a 1TB SSD and 32GB of ram. Can’t decide because they both have pros and cons. The framework will cost 1429+~170=€1600 for ssd and ram and the Mac with student discount will cost me €2000. And with the better battery life and screen etc. I’m still debating with myself and can’t choose :( So my question is how do decide because I can’t find a definitive choice for myself. Thanks already for the answers

    Thanks. My use case as an econ student is mostly just college stuff like excel and word that sort of stuff. Dont want to take charger with me to class but the AMD one will probably survive a workday. Furthermore things like content consumption such as watching movies and youtube etc. Thats why the screen of the macbook is tempting (never seen a framework screen IRL tho). And then also would like some “Light” gaming like Football Manager, Baldur’s gate etc. And some emulation of nintendo consoles. Also would like some small video and photo editing, but just for fun not for business or something.
