I actually miss the time when it was this cut and dry. The MBP was hands down the best laptop on the market and it wasn't even close. OSX was a great mix of Linux and usability. Everything (mostly) just worked. I don't recall it being like that before or since.

MacBooks are great laptops that last 5+ years. With a windows laptop I never got more than 2 years out of them. Maybe that was because I used Dell mostly but it was a stark difference. The Dell was cheaper though by at least 50% so maybe that would explain it. This is also a testament to how the web won and now mobile/smart devices are eating the web. Before it was about where the eyeballs where. The web democratized access to these eyeballs.
