    my wife’s old Macbook is still going strong for casual use

    As is the 500 dollar Acer laptop I bought in 2016 lol But yeah, my wife had wanted a MacBook Pro for a very long time. We finally had the money for it in 2019 so we got that laptop for her. In order to play games on it, I had to give her one of my Windows keys and learn how to set up Boot Camp. It’s actually a perfectly serviceable gaming laptop.

    She loves it. It’s still holding up very well. But was it worth $2,700? Not to me. But then again, my '97 Honda probably isn’t worth the $2,700 I paid for it to her, either. I don’t understand why she wants overly expensive computers. She doesn’t understand why I want overly crappy cars. But we did say for better or worse so here we are lol
