I’m running a 2015 MacBook Pro still. I’m not spending $2k+ on a computer again anytime soon.

You could spend ~$1k for similar specs if you don’t go Apple.

I grew up in the 90s. I prefer apple I had windows for years, endless problems. Macs just work and last forever. My Mac before 2015 was a 2007.
And no, I’m not installing Linux.

Use what works I guess. I personally don’t like macOS (I have to use it at work), and I’m not really a fan of the hardware anyway, but my brother’s family likes them, so they definitely have a target audience.

Yeah I love Mac OS. Granted I’m running an old version so who knows how the current OS is but I’m happy with what I have and probably won’t replace it for some time.
I used to work as a designer, the constant need to update my equipment to stay current with software made me leave the profession (not to mention adobes money grabbing bullshit). I can’t afford to spend a few grand every couple years just to freelance and have my income wildly fluctuate. Since I wasn’t able or willing to keep up with the expensive updates i quit entirely and now I’m too outdated to be hired even though I have all the theory and knowledge sitting in my brain.
The joys of being an American graduating into the 2008 recession and never getting a proper job that I studied for. Fuck this country.
