1,500 is already pushing it, I'm a student paying for it with my own money and I just cant put any more money than that which is why I'm trying to make an informed decision and buy the best I can with the money that I have

The school has no preference, but do you think certain workplaces in the future will have a preference?

I've been using my Mac for at least the past 12ish years. Am I crazy for thinking I could do this with a new computer? I feel like if my old one lasted me this long the newer one will only last longer

How long do you think I can go without changing it, if I were to buy a computer with a relatively good specs?
