I bought my Macbook White used and loving it despite being 6 years old. Still very zippy compared to my Lenovo Flex2 with W10. Since then, I upgraded the RAM and hard drive to SSD. Now can fly.

The joy of virus free world.

I have been using Mac since errr.. 1999. Heavy user since 2006. Never once I encounter a virus in any Mac I use.

So yeah.

Got la. Ransomware. Usually idiots who use iTunes info on suspicious sites or malware infected apps from the App Store.

Sometimes Finder will hang. Only way is to Force Quit and wait few seconds. Same problem on Windows where Explorer.exe will crash or hang.

MacBook is God. I got rid of my W10 PCs and laptops after upgrading to Mac Mini and MacBook. All bought used. Even used also much faster than W10 with similar specs.

Not much. My MacBook is the 2010 white one. Bought it used at RM 1.3K but previous owner upgraded to 256GB SSD and 8GB RAM. Good enough to run El Capitan for months. I've not reboot / shutdown for 3 months now. Previous had to reboot after updating some patches.
