Just replaced 2008 MacBook with MacBook Air, nought wrong with MacBook just wanted a change. win laptop bought at the same time long time dead after being so slow and constant BSOD. Pay for what you get.

I think most of my housemates had had their laptop a bit longer than two years. I assume they had bought theirs when they were in 6th form. I bought my macbook a few weeks before starting Uni but it has still lasted much longer than their laptops did. Most of my family have at best only managed about 5 years before a laptop dies and even before then they start to have problems and run really slow. My macbook is the same as the day I bought it.

Honestly the biggest issue is that most Windows OSs are a system resource glut. I had a really old machine, which I installed an XFCE UI arch linux OS and it worked perfectly.
