Cheap laptops. When you buy a quality / smilingly priced windows laptop they can last as long as a Mac book

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I often find myself pushing friends and family to spend a little bit more on laptops (regardless of brand) because I know they could keep them for longer if they did. I always remind them that it's cheaper to buy a good laptop once than it is to buy three shitty ones.

Yup. Buy a $500 windows laptop and kf course it would end up failing before a $2000 Mac book
