There's a lot of #art on the #fediverse.
As a blind person who doesn't need this stuff I need #advice.
my daughter will need to use #Adobe #Photoshop from September.
Is an #ARM #Surface a good idea? I'm wanting a balance of battery life and functionality. #Windows is probably essential given other concerns.

Mac seems to be a popular viewpoint. School are explicit about Windows, so I will find out why before proceeding. I'm also a Windows user, though don't want my own bias to influence things too much.

Again, sorry for not untagging you quick.

in reply to Sean Randall • • •The point that I was trying to make is that a Mac is not a PC, so switching from one to the other should be a decision from the person that is going to use it (or the school/company is applicabile) and that assuming that a PC user would be fine with a Mac (or vice-versa) is a bit naïve.
