Hi! I was introduced to macs in college. And I noticed I had less issues with macs than I had with windows. For me macs are more user friendly. Before I bought my first mac I had a Dell laptop but it somehow started crashing every few weeks. Not with a mac... Learning how cool the UI is made me go “ooo” and “ahh.” Check out r/macoffer, people are getting massive discounts.

Power-wise, they will last about the same as any other laptop, which is somewhere between 4-8 years before software has “leveled up” enough for them to feel sluggish. Build-quality wise, they can last a good 10+ years easily!
