I'll ask here instead of killing another thread. My parents want to buy me a brand new base 15" MacBook Pro. Is there any options worth paying out of my pocket for? No they won't buy anything else, no I won't turn around and sell it despite knowing all the problems they have.

> Is there any options worth paying out of my pocket for?
Given that everything is soldered, there are two options: RAM and SSD.

no

heh-heh-hell yeah. still got mine from '12 goin strong. love the fuckin thing.

whoops, replied to the wrong post

Is a rare find at a fair price, still the only notebook worth buying right now if you don‘t already have one

Convince them to get you a 2015 MacBook Pro instead

Macbooks look slick but I wouldn't want to use one. Using a Macbook as a daily driver is like taking your Porsche to go do your groceries.

Is and will always remain hot garbage.

I want to buy it but
>4 unusable ports
>shitty keyboard
inb4 >get a dongle for usable ports

An extended warranty, so you can get your keyboard replaced when it inevitably breaks multiple times

if i had one id unironically get a dongle because i almost never need the ports on a daily driver type of basis. id only get a dongle when needed

> if i had one id unironically get a dongle
FtM?

but they don't have any problems

Based.

I know. I made a road trip to them and saw that they had a MacBook Pro 13". All I said was how do you like it and are you careful with the keyboard because they have problems. Turned out they've had it since 2016 and were like, want us to get you one? Your laptop looks pretty old. How am I supposed to say no to that?
