  • And longevity. I have a 2011 MBP thats now running Debian and is still a tank. I’ve had two MacBooks since I got it but the damn thing refuses to die.

    My daily laptop is an M2 Air which is ridiculously powerful for my needs, so when Apple drop OS support for it I’ll put Asahi on it and keep it trucking until the wheels fall off.

    And that 2011 will still be going.

    When I was studying radio production at uni back in 2010, the Adobe Audition editing suite was rammed full of 2009 iMacs, all running WinXP. It was a bit of a headfuck for a moment, but iMac hardware was second to none, the uni must have got a decent discount from Apple to buy that many, and at the time Audition was Windows only.

    And to be fair, they made for excellent editing machines.

    macOS, mostly.

    Been fiddling with Mint lately on my 2011 Macbook Pro, with a view to using it for self hosting a bunch of stuff, but haven’t really had the time / brane capacity to really figure it all out.

    Windows can lick my anus. I have Win11 in a VM on my work Mac, and it’s dreadful.
