THC posted:then when they do put out a new thing ppl are all "ugh! planned obsolescence! stop the upgrade treadmill" No one is ever happy. A company says "here's the good poo poo for $1400, you don't need to upgrade for four years" to me and I'm overjoyed at my nice Macbook Air Someone somehow manages to be mad at that

My macbook pro mid 2010 is about to kick the bucket from a worn out nvidia gpu and I want to spend an unreasonable amount of money on the latest and greatest laptop to last me another 6 years But who am I kidding, the new macbooks are all built like they were a big stupid iPad and will only be good for a couple years at most with non-upgradable non-replacable everything. Tim trying to make Steve proud, you're not supposed to open the box! You buy a new one!
