I think this is a nice list. I especially like the keyboard pick and productivity laptop choice.

I think an alternative Wintel choice for the other 90% of the computer using world would be good.

A bit expensive list: monitor, headphones, keyboard.... All of them are top price.
Maybe it should also include a recommended component by price/value. For example: PCI gen 5 SSD is not useful for 99% of people.

I also agree with the motherboard, $300 is a lot for a motherboard to most people, maybe tiers like you suggested?

I also disagree on the Macbook Pro, maybe best Apple laptop, but not the best productivity laptop. No one is being productive if they have to change out their entire ecosystem, and $1600 dollars for the base entry with 8GB of RAM should be a crime. Spec'd out to a usable degree with tax and a 3 year apple care warranty is around $2500, you can buy many nice laptops for much less, sometimes even multiples of them. Also you better buy the best macbook that you can afford since you'll never be able to upgrade it or replace parts. All around, its just not a good choice, especially not if you're looking at it as a business machine thats supposed to used for 3 to 5 years. As an expensive toy, sure, do what you want, there are plenty of other laptops that can give it company in that category.
