I’ve become a big fan of the Lenovo machines. I am a mechanical engineer and spend my days using 3D CAD (Pro/E/Creo and Solidworks, but mostly Creo). My work laptop is an HP, which works fine but a couple of years ago, I was working on a project where our customer provided laptop workstations that were all Lenovo’s. They did everything the HP’s did but were significantly lighter weight.

I’ve looked several times at upgrading my personal laptop (a Dell) to something more modern that would permit some side work and while I haven’t pulled the trigger, something ISV certified like a Lenovo P50/51/52 is the route I would go. I imagine architecture design software and design software like Rhino requires similar specs.

I’m a fan of Apple and am typing this on an iPad but a MacBook
Pro is not what I would choose... quite a price premium and you are still not escaping Microsoft... just doesn’t make sense to me.
