I guess I still looking for an actual use case, where someone did in fact had such a transition recently, and would appreciate sharing your thoughts and feedbacks.Īlthough once asked I knew this was a very subjective question, and I was not looking for specific yes or no, but rather hearing the community's experience, here now I would like the share the following short conclusion for those that might have to make a similar decision. it is worth to mention that I will have GPU if I go with Surface Pro 6, and has a nice touchscreen feature too!
Which mac is best for deep learning windows 10#
Nevertheless, majority of other employees are Windows-base, and I feel if I go with Mac I would be an outlier.Īt the same I am not feeling completely stranger around Windows and I am not totally blind! In fact recently I hear in the news a lot about Microsoft drastic changes naming: incorporating Linux kernel starting from end of this month (would be so sure if it would work as the Mac one though) in Windows 10 Pro, Visual Studio Code is a product of Microsoft that has been gaining lots of interest and I am using and loving it and perhaps would run even more smoother in Windows machine than Mac, and not that it is very relevant but Widows acquired GitHub. Obviously I am leaning towards Macbook Pro as I have been with for some time now and am quite efficient and productive. The configues will be exactly the same as I wish, so this wouldn't matter.
They give me a choice of either Surface Pro 6 or Macbook Pro, although I felt it was implied they would rather me going with Surface Pro 6 (still I can choose!). The whole team is based on Microsoft, even very few developers in the team using the latest Surface Pro 6. I totally felt great with such a smooth, stable OS that allows access to Linux kernel as well, and eventually I bought a Macbook Pro for my personal use.Īt present I am about to start my new role in industry as Data Scientist.

Anyways, I moved to Mac OSx both at work during my PhD studies since it was a better choice for doing Computational Physics. It is noted that I was not a developer or a data scientist back then. The most annoying part was that it was a quite unstable. Surface Pro 6 or Macbook Pro for Data Scientist Job?Ībout 8 years ago I was a Windows user.
