If you want a MacBook look, for half the price why not get a highly specced HP laptop? I decided on an Envy (silly name) 13 inch. Aluminium body, touch screen, i7 processor, 16GB RAM and a 1TB SSD drive. Just over £1k but a lot cheaper than Mac and you can connect everything with numerous ports. If you want MacOS, buy a Mac. Otherwise good hardware is available more cheaply
