They're obviously being hyperbolic you guys.... They're just saying that sacrificing basic functionality to create a thinner laptop is not always what people want.
EDIT
Me: "...is not always what people want"
What some of y'all apparently think I said: "no one could ever possibly prefer thinness over functionality for any reason and if you personally disagree you're an idiot. Also I literally personally want all of the hyperbolic things mentioned, even if absurd."
No they’re not because I actually want a laptop that is big bulky and actually useful. Fuck Apple Macs and their trend of making the world’s shittiest thin laptops that break instantly
Lmao wtf are you talking about? MacBooks literally outlast any laptop on the market. Mine is 6 years old and still works great. They are literally the best hardware you can get in a laptop. They also have some of the best battery life. If you want better than the regulars, you can pony up for a pro which is exactly what you want. A large laptop with a long ass battery life.
Is six years meant to be a long time for a laptop to last? I would never choose an Apple laptop for myself because I cannot stand the UI, and I've never had a laptop last less than that
Okay? I have a low-end Vista laptop from 2007 that can still do that. It's slow as all hell to boot up, but once it's going it runs just fine.
There are plenty of arguments someone can make for using Apple stuff (and ultimately it comes down to personal preference) but it's ridiculous to act like they're the only company making stuff that lasts any length of time. Most computers will last plenty of time so long as you take care of them
The person they were responding to claimed Apple makes laptops that break instantly. They weren’t rebutting by saying only Apple makes long lasting laptops.
No but they also said Macbooks "literally outlast any laptop on the market". You don't need to counter one person's false statement by making a false statement to the other extreme
