People HATE to see the hard statistics, right? There are a lot of folks who would look at this, experience brief cognitive dissonance, and then basically just go ..."fuck you!"

But I do have to provide one counterpoint - my Macbook Pro from 2015, though overpriced in many ways, is a beast in terms of durability. It runs as well as it did the day I got it, 2.5 years later, and still handles all of my audio engineering software without any issues.

That and the lack of viruses have kept me on the Mac train for now... but even so, I'm not sure if it's really worth the premium.
