(no title)

In my experience the 16" MBP is just bad. This is my first Apple laptop and it's pretty, but that's about it. Despite having a serious horsepower (on paper) the fan runs constantly while doing basic tasks, I get tons of beachballs, and my wireless mouse has to plugged into a specific port or it's janky as hell. It's not intuitive (for me) or performant. It's not even a good linux stand in.

My takeaway from this whole experience is that computer people will give up practicality for fashion just as much as anyone else.

wireless mouse

plugged into a specific port

So, is it wireless or not? Or is it one of those Bluetooth dongle things from the 1990's?

If the mouse is Bluetooth, why not just have it connect directly to the computer? Every Mac since 2003 has had built-in Bluetooth.
