Apple No More?
My trusty Macbook Pro is 8 years old. A bit like the Argo it is arguable if that's entirely true, since the memory has been increased and the HDD has been replaced by an SSD (if you haven't done this I can't emphasis enough how worthwhile an upgrade it is). But the fact remains that it's elderly and things like running an android emulator are getting too much for it. I've been putting off buying a new machine as long as possible though. Gone are the days when I used to lust after the latest model. Apple seem to be deliberately making their machines less appealing to me. This may be age creeping up on me and an accompanying lack of desire to experience new things, but I don't think so (at least, not in this case). Soldered memory and soldered SSD? Memory I can just about cope with; to be honest I don't find a need to use more than 8GB for anything these days. But I get all itchy at the thought of internal storage you can't replace or upgrade.
