Finally died again twoish weeks ago and ended up getting a 16" macbook pro
my desktops? The one I built in 2013 is still chugging along, same config since the day i built it. The one I have in college I bought early 2017 and still on the same windows install even though i've changed motherboards (upgrading) a solid 3-4 times.
I like macbooks because they are indestructable until they randomly die on me. the build quality of the chassis is amazing and it can withstand what i do to my laptops but their disks are horrible; its barely been 3 days since i've had the 16" and i'm already backing up daily lol

im writing this message from a 2011 MacBook Pro.. been carried a lot of places, had some harsh landings and few years ago drank a big glass of Coke from its keyboard area, its turned on almost 24/7 or just in sleep.. im turning it off 2-3 times max a year at most..
2014 iMac not having an easy life as well.. no problems.. knocking on wood.. your experience can be a bit unlucky i believe..
