I have used both Windows and Macs for many years.
If I have to buy a computer from my money, it is going to be a Mac.
Nowadays you can even run Windows on them, if you must: Bootcamp,
Parallels and others make it possible.
The laptops outperform typical PC's anyway, even when running Windows
(natively).

Of those I have seen switching to a Mac, it took them usually some two
weeks to learn the new habits, but none of them ever looked back.

Apple computers consistently rank at the top of Consumer Report rating for
both performance and reliability. They are far from cheap though.

The Dell Inspiron laptop I purchased for my son ranked 2nd in performance
and their latest tests of laptops and Dell ranked either 2nd or 3rd for
reliability.

Sounds like your son is getting a super gift! ;-)

Is a nice gift. But kids always cost us money. My 2 cost me a little over
$100k for university degrees.

You got off cheaply.
