It used to be if you bought a new computer after 6 years, it was way faster. I miss the old Moore's Law.

I'm only replacing my 3+ year old laptop because I spilled tea on it, and the left shift and the letter under A doesn't work anymore.

Did you type this on a phone? (It has As in it.)
-
Nope. Not A, under A. Luckily "z" is not very common, so I'm copy/pasting it. The missing shift key is pretty annoying, though.

Battery life has gotten ridiculously better, it's my favorite improvement in my new Mac. The displays are sweet too.

lolz... It seems even Moore's Law is subject to the constraints of bloatware, and systematic complexity failure..

Get something with a reasonable GPU. It'll crush a GPU from six years ago.

I think computing power is just sucked up until you hit the Minimum Viable UX. No appreciation for speed/efficiency.

don't forget forced updates and new keyboard technology. And probably also a way better screen.

running benchmarks last weekend, 2015 MacbookPro is 2x faster than 2012 Macbook Pro (both maxed out).

Only 2x in 3 years? It used to be 4x.
