That being said, just because other laptops are cheaper doesn't make them better. I care about minimizing e-waste, so I prefer to buy durable devices that last. For that reason, I bought a Macbook 12 years ago that still works fine, while a friend of mine is on his 4th laptop in half that time.

It's an illustration of the Sam Vimes "Boots Theory". Not saying that buying overpriced Apple hardware is the way to go, but just that it's important to look at more than whatever's cheaper, since a lot of laptops that look like they have good hardware for the price are not meant to last more than a couple years.

Just buy a Thinkpad.

A freind of mine has one from 15 Years ago, still works like a charm
