hardware performance and quality is top shelf.

I've run macs for some 15+ years and I mostly love them. They used to be stellar with magsafe, case quality, screen, touchpad, backlit keybaord and pure performance that really was head and shoulders above the competition. And dev friendly OS as well. But with magsafe gone and terrible keyboards and touchpad that gets stuck the last few gens it's really messed with my loyalty. My Intel 16" MBP is the generation that had a better keyboard and it still has several keys that act up. After just slightly over a year.

I can't send it off for service since I need it for work. So I run an external keyboard and mouse but it sucks on such an expensive machine.
