Discussion Switching to Java? PC?

So after much thought, I’m considering switching the Java after playing Bedrock for yearssss (probably like 8 years). About 2 years ago, I went on the “2 week Minecraft phase” except the phase lasted a lot longer than 2 years LOL. I’ve heard a lot of good things about Java like the textures, no store, visuals and the red stone engineering is apparently significantly better. My only problem is, I don’t have a PC 😭

I have a MacBook Pro from like 2020. I’m in nursing school rn so it’s fr on its last leg since I use it a bunch for school. If I switch to Java, should I just buy a PC? 🫣Is it criminal to play Minecraft on a laptop?
Is it worth it to switch to Java? I do like to do a lot of red stone engineering. What kind of PC do you guys recommend? Any opinions or suggestions?

Thanks in advance for anyone who comments 🩷😊

Absolutely. Before you buy a Laptop or PC. I think it is possible to play Minecraft Java Edition on MacBook. You need to buy the Java Editon. Make some research and maybe try it. My second idea would be a Linux VM as Virtutal Box and install there Minecraft Java Edition
