The computer that will outlive its owner, and will be
going strong after 5, 10 and even 15 years
The top-of-the-line high-end models are built to last and aren't made with
planned obsolescence in mind.
They are extremely upgradeable, and parts are plentiful. In the very rare case something goes wrong, you can repair it at home with dental floss and a brick.
A lot of them pack high-end specs, and very old ThinkPads are much better alternatives than today's low-end consumer-grade laptops.
Ranging from the slim X1 Carbon ultrabook that weighs less than an M1 Mac to
the Massive W701 DS that you can send someone to spectator mode with.
I have a 2012 ThinkPad X1 Carbon gen 1, with i7, 8Gb ram and 256 SSD, and it literally runs TensorFlow deep neural networks.
Yooooo my ThinkPad just turned 10 years old today! Still
going strong with just a
thermal paste change.
Your MacBook is just 4 years old and
you need a new one? You wasted your money, should have got a ThinkPad.
