You people are crazy and/or rich.
A new Mac every 2/3 years? 90% of the population keeps their computers for much more than that. After 3 years almost any computer, especially a Mac, is still completely capable. There's no big improvement in performance in 3 years.
And Macs are more expensive every year! Wow. Unbelievable. I've still got my late 2009 27 inch iMac with me and still works like a champ, and I can't see myself justifying a new Mac even after all these years because mine works perfectly and these things cost a fortune.
Many of you must have really really good paid jobs.
Well, it kind of depends. Keep in mind the audience here - mac enthusiasts. Maybe instead of buying parts for a car they’re working on they buy computer hardware. Nbd. I try to upgrade as little as possible but sometimes you just have saved the money and you want the latest and greatest!

Had a pro before but it was like a rock....so moved to 8G ram MBA 13 i7 in 2012...it is still going strong as I have it on el capitan...now I see the beachball once or twice a day....I am sure if I upgrade the OS it will be done....so Im staying on El C till this one croaks.
Im leaning to a 13" MBP nTB next....I expect it to last at least 8 years given the price.
Get the one with the actual usb-c ports
