Not a fair comparison, certainly it is expensive and you can build your own CPU with better features with that amount of money.

I found some details about Mac machines through this:

I don't own an Apple machine and my experience with a MacBook Air 2018 wasn't bad (it was for a short time, 3 months, 6 months ago), except for the lousy keyboard. That was the first time I felt happiness while typing on a cheap MS keyboard. But the screen, the ease to install what I want to do my work was great. I pray to my lucky stars that I don't have to work on a laptop with a MS Windows. Currently I own a HP laptop, i5 3rd gen, Intel GPU, 5 years old with Kubuntu (my favorite distro can't handle RoR).

Would I get a MacOS machine? I would, not a new one and not before digging good information about it.
