So like many of you, I was hoping Apple would announce new MBPs today. Since that didn't happen, I thought I'd start this thread to collect suggestions for anyone who is in the same boat as me - as in you have an old (in my case, purchased in Dec 2013) MBP that's still working, and that you'd like to keep that way for however long it takes.

In particular...
- What apps or settings adjustments would you use to keep speed and battery life as good as possible?
- What tips do you have to keep the physical components in good working order, i.e. power cord intact, vents clean, etc? (I started using one of those cooling laptop trays recently...)
- Any personal techniques you use to get the risk of "accidental damage" down from say 0.1% to 0.0000001%?
