Apple Users

My 2008 MacBook still works pretty well - it serves as my backup/travel machine. (That's when I go on overseas flights or to big cities and don't feel like chancing it by taking my main laptop along). My main MacBook Pro is almost three years old and still works pretty well. (I did have to replace the hard drive last summer after the original one died on me. Got a 1TB drive). My brother got about 4.5 years out of his iBook before it stopped working - about one month before the first unibody MacBook Pros were introduced. His MBP is still working quite well at almost 5 1/2 years of age. He doesn't use it quite as much now that he has an iPad. He said if and when his MBP does give out he'll get something like a Mac Mini instead and just use his iPad when he's out and about.
