I love how apple retail employees always are ready to educate me on macs, and one of the first things they say, "if you buy a mac, it will be the only computer you ever need - and will last you years to come!" (because PCs all fall apart within a year or two.../sarcasm)
but yeah, obviously you can get long life out of anything if you take care of it, but I wonder if what the sales specialists argue is valid - because from what I have been seeing, apple stops giving OSX updates after a few years - and granted every couple years technology advances so fast - it just doesn't seem like a good basis to sells macs on, that it will "last you years to come!" because PCs can last years to come just as well, I've owned many and i still have laptops that are like 8 years old and running fine.
But yeah dont get offended, I'm a mac and i love macs! hoorah! I'm so hipster i etc...starbucks, PBR...because xyz is too mainstream.....kk.
