I've been holding onto my late 2013 15" MacBook Pro for almost 7 years now and it's wild to see it get absolutely out-spec'd by the MacBook Air. It's been a long time, but I've always convinced myself that I'm not missing out on that big of a processor improvement. I do a lot of audio work with it, but even then it doesn't always feel like a slow experience.

My favorite model, the keyboard is heavenly.

I really do love it. I'm gonna miss it when I eventually have to retire it. It's been rock solid this entire time.
