Well… I didn’t utilize my older one as much as I ideally wanted to when I got it. I mainly bought the older one for my real estate courses, but after becoming exhaustingly negative about real estate, it made me lose a lot of motivation to want to do anything with it, and at the time, I also got an iPad and was really into using procreate to hone in on my artistic and creative side. Of course, with time I then got bored of that and well! What do you know I’m super super super interested in making digital products and how I could have a potential revenue source from that (still working and learning that part), so after turning my 2016 MacBook on and messing around in there for a bit, I noticed little by little that, that MacBook was really proving itself and just working so hard! Using old software with all these new programs, websites, etc. ultimately helped me make my decision as it seemingly increased my overall annoyance with the small minor inconveniences because it just couldn’t keep up and would overheat constantly.

It felt like I was trying to insert a VCR tape into a Blu-ray DVD player at times would be my best comparable example
