You forgot the part about demanding: "HALF" -- speed ahead to the 90 second mark for the inside info.

First of all, you can't even quote properly. 6 fucking years you have been a member here and you still can't do it right.
My iMac can run programs new computers can't without a subscription. Photoshop being one of those. I also have the very first ipod ever released and I suppose I still have both because they are more collectors items now than tools. Something a PC will never be, by the way. Them being collectors items has nothing to do with your claim that there are no apples that can work for more than a decade without having to replace the parts though. How would you know anyway? Obviously, you can't afford one since you always mention their price when talking about apples.
And that sucks for the poor kid that gets your jizz and beer soaked donated dell... Probably why you have to replace the parts so often. lol

Does -or- will, the Mac you mentioned, last 10 to 11 years without a major component failure?

I have an iMac from 2002 that still works perfectly fine. My current MacBook pro is about 6 years old and will keep working past the time my desire to buy a new one comes.

In essence, you're saying that your 2002 era iMac is still superlative and quite useful, yet you also have a newer, more expensive MacBook Pro which you use (probably 100% of the time, since it's so much more powerful)...It's prudent to keep a back up unit for when you're main rig shits the bed -- better to have and never need, than need and never have. Smart!

So in order to own a PC that will last you as long as a Macbook Pro you have to be a total geek?
That's like having to be a mechanic to own a certain type of car and then claiming it's better because you know how to fix it every time it breaks down.

You get what you pay for. I used PC's for years (went through 4 of them!), and spent a fortune getting them debugged every few months (even with state-of-the-art malware protection). I started using Macbook Pro's in 2007, and I'll never look back! Mine have never gotten viruses, trojans, etc. and I've never had to have them cleaned. I'm on my second 15" Macbook Pro with solid-state storage, 8 gigs of memory, retina screen resolution... It's lightning fast, runs cool and quiet, lightweight, and power-up to browser is always less than 5 seconds. PC's were always a huge time-waster, waiting for them to boot and scan at start-up, then freeze all the time. Mac for me!
