    People don’t always need fastest possible computers for their tasks. As long as the browser works and is current is enough for most people.

    Besides, Macs tend to be nice looking and their build quality is good. Aesthetics are subjective, but many find even older Macs pretty nice to look at compared to black boxes.

      Not arguing with that, I am myself daily-driving a lenovo that was assembled 3 years before the last intel macbook was produced, so it’s not exactly new either.

      This helps explain why anyone would want to buy an obsolete, irreparable, non-extensible laptop 6 years after its discontinuation. I don’t think it’s good advise, though :-)
