Considering switching to Mac from windows, is it honestly worth it? I mean I don't plan on running heavy load models, but hopefully decent enough for it to handle midsize models.

For any serious work you would never run on a laptop. Money better spent, MacBook Air plus a 3090 workstation.

Macbook Air is not money well spent. Workstation with 4090, and A100 in the cloud on the money you saved

Yeah and i suppose you are able to carry it everywhere and work for hours without a power supply

My exact setup. MacBook Air to ssh into my Linux machine with a Nvidia RTX 3090
