When the touchbar macbooks were announced,I immediately went out and bought a used 2015 macbook. The great thing about them is that they are good for quite a long time because macs dont tend to get bogged down over time

I love the unix lineage on Mac OS with a consumer ready GUI.

By far the #1 thing that keeps me from using windows as my main machine is the registry.

I do have an old windows desktop that I upgraded with SSD and maxed out the ram and it runs great with windows 10.

I also run windows 10 in parallels on my Mac (for the office suite and a few windows only programs. Time machine backup works incredibly well and I can 100% rely on it. I can be up and running in minutes even if my windows 10 image gets completely destroyed.

I had a mac stolen, went to the store, bought a new one, restored from time machine almost immediately.

The only thing Ive been disappointed in is that the stability of the last two versions hasnt been great. I used to go months without a reboot, now I crash about once every two weeks.
