Mac or Windows? Laptops or Desktops? What are some of the best options for drone pilots?

Today’s show is about the best computer options available for drone pilots.

Our caller for today, Cody is, of course, a drone pilot who is scouting for the best and most affordable computer system.

So, what are some of the main things that Cody should consider when buying a computer for his drone business? How can he get the maximum bang for the buck?

To answer Cody’s question, we first discuss the all-new Macbook Pro, and whether or not it is a good buy for professionals.

You will also learn how the ongoing chip shortage coupled with the surge in cryptocurrency mining has led to skyrocketing prices.

So, as a drone pilot, should Copy opt for the latest Apple laptop? Or should he go for desktop-based GPU’s like Alienware?

For all this and much, much more, don’t miss out on this show.
