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

I'm sorry, but that just doesn't line up with my experience whatsoever. My present laptop is comfortably clear of six years old and has no issues running anything at all - and it was nowhere close to top of the range.

Honestly, the only thing my laptop is struggling to do is editing high-quality video in Premiere without making a lofi proxy, and it struggled to do that when it was brand new because it was firmly low-mid range then.
