I have a 7˝yo MacBook Pro and I've loved it the entire time I've had it.

I was told that no one has the parts for it that old anymore, which is really sad. I don't want a new one because they are ridiculously expensive and they took away the DVD drive and I use it a lot to watch DVDs. I know that I could get a separate DVD player to link to it, but I think that's a really inconvenient idea.

But I can't go back to windows - I tried to use my Mum's brand new laptop the other day and wanted to throw it against the wall after 5 mins, and her one before that was always full of viruses despite antivirus software, so even though the cost is much better, I just don't think they last as long without issues. My MacBook Pro has been absolutely problem-free until the last year, and it's still perfectly useable...so I don't really know what to do :/


I can sense it too, but it's always dark for me

Wrt the sz diagnosis: if that explanation adds value to your life in some way by providing an explanation and/or help for your experiences, then it's worth going along with. But only you can decide if it resonates with you and adds meaning to your life


I'm sorry that you lost all of those photos

Hi, Willow! Thank you! It was worse than that, though. It wasn't to sing Happy birthday, it was just to get the smokers to say it. But they didn't. They sort of glanced around, or looked down at the ground. Just lovely. It's a sign of things to come for me.
