Probably yes and that is also probably because behaviors like this. Manufacturers have trained consumers for years that upgrading of fixing stuff is not worth it. Personally, I have upgraded every laptop I have ever owned. This isn't possible with todays Macbooks.
> Also Apple devices on average have much longer service lives than devices from most other manufacturers
Bullshit, if anything I believe the opposite is true. What is your source for this?
- Sangeppato 7y ago> Bullshit, if anything I believe the opposite is true. What is your source for this? In my experience this is true, but not for technical reasons. It just seems to me that there a lot of people happily using almost 10 years old macbooks just because they want a macbook, but probably can't afford a new one. Just try to sell a 6/7 years old mac and then try doing the same with a Windows laptop from the same year: you'll sell the mac much more quickly, for a higher price. I think that old macbooks still have a market, most old laptops don't, but this is just my impression.
