Well put it this way - I arrived back from the USA after being deported with Zero Equipment in 07. I immediately bought what was at the time, the most top end Sony Vaio laptop available... This was good at first, but after a year or so, I had to get a second cheaper HP laptop, just to share the workload as I couldn't do everything I wanted at the same time on the VAIO. I needed a second PC for different tasks...
By late 09, I was looking at getting a further laptop, but decided to bite the bullet and get an iMac. It was the entry level one (Not the most expensive) and I thought, Id give this a go alongside my laptops.
One year in and the laptops are gathering dust - Everything I need to do is being done consecutively on the iMac, and its flawless. It never even breaks a sweat... The iMac gets left on 24/7 and has been like that for over 10 flawless years. Its running the latest but 1 operating system - ie, still being supported and updated over TEN YEARS LATER !
Like I say, its never given me a days issue - Never stopped working even once, and my VAIO wont even update to Win 10 cause its too old, and the HP is kaput long ago...
Well actually the VIAO is kaput too cause it wont even charge anymore, but my point is that for that little bit extra cash upfront, and paying more for possibly older tech... It was packaged together by apple to 'simply work' and work it simply has - Day in Day out, for over ten years... So Im very pleased with it as an allround work horse, and won't hesitate to get another when the time arrives
