Saying Macs become "e-trash in a couple years" is similarly way way off the mark. Expected life for many Macs is a decade or more. I have one that is from 1984 that still works perfectly. After that, much of the machine is fully recyclable, and the case is 100% recyclable.

What is the value of an Intel Mac now that Mx(s) are out?
- Bud 4y agoThey aren't "forced out of the market". That's just made-up. And the animus against standard OS upgrades is not particularly convincing, to me at least. The value of Intel Macs is holding up just fine. I can go sell my 2019 Intel MBP and still get a lot more out of it than a PC laptop of similar vintage. This has of course been historically true of Macs, as well, as even a cursory investigation will reveal.
