As a side note, I absolutely cannot imagine being upset of having a machine lasting long.
Sure it's nice the shiny new thing but has capitalism infiltrated people's mind that much? All my previous laptops died on me several times and became frankestein's monsters before I let them rest for a final time (to be often repurposed to other family/friends' machines).
The SSD don't last forever, after about 3 to 4 years of daily use the drive/system should be replaced. At >5 years, one could hit retention issues and corruption losses.
Good excuse to upgrade though, as a $1500 recovery bill would not be cool. Best regards =3
Still loving my M1 to be honest!
It’s super annoying. I’m salivating over all the new announcements but my M1 16GB 1TB will likely last another 5 years.

Same here. I've never had a machine feel so great for so long before!
