The reverse of a question I asked on here a while ago.

    The one apple product I’m willing to buy.

    I feel like other brands have closed the gap but there was a time where macbooks seemed like the only great laptop on the market.

      IMO:

      Early 2000 -> 2014 - MacBooks are great

      2014 -> 2016 - MacBooks are decent

      2016 -> Last Intel Models - MacBooks are bad

      M1 -> Present - MacBooks are great

        Currently using my 2011 MacBook Pro! It’s got 16GB of RAM and I’ve replaced the optical drive with a SSD, but it still browses the web and handles sorting and browsing and editing 80k photos!

          I put Linux Mint on mine. It’s like a brand new laptop. Incredible hardware.

            Ugh I would LOVE that, but I need OSX for iPhoto, it’s so amazing for organizing a million photos…
