It&#x27;s not just software. While I&#x27;m still a fan of Macbooks, I&#x27;m getting close to abandoning ship thanks to the increasingly un-repairability of these things. I have a Macbook from ~2008 that&#x27;s still functional as a media PC thanks to memory&#x2F;SSD upgrades and battery replacements over the years.<p>My current Macbook Pro has memory soldered on to the motherboard and a battery glued to the case. The SSD is technically replaceable, but the specs that this laptop shipped with are going to be the specs that it dies with.<p>When the battery goes, I&#x27;ll have to either risk destroying the machine or pay way too much to Apple to do the job for me. At that point I&#x27;ll probably just switch to a brand with a more reasonable user-servicing model, assuming those still exist.
