"We" didn't do anything. Nobody is replacing their MacBooks every two years; those machines are tanks and are profoundly overspecced for most users' needs.
replyMy last MacBook lasted me from 2015-2025. It's still running actually, just getting slow.
replyyou just gotta know when to stop updating OS and macbooks will last a loooong time
replyI love my plastic ThinkPad, but it's also nice to use good-feeling hardware with a good haptic trackpad. It doesn't need to be replaced every two years. To each their own!
replyI don't know about you but I really don't want my laptop to be the hottest thing, it sits on my lap.
replyMy thinkpad is from 2017, but I bought it in 2022, it's still working fine - I upgraded the memory to 32G (£70) and I've replaced the battery twice (once when I bought it, once a couple of months ago). When I replace it it will likely be because of hardware failure (droppping it etc).
