What is amusing is that Apple build such good quality Macbooks now, people are keeping them for 5 years. My 2 and half year old MBP handles any dev task I throw at it fine, can't imagine replacing it for a couple more years at least. I also know a lot of gamers, they are happy playing at 1080p with 2500 or 3500 series CPU's as they are mostly playing CS:GO or Dota 2.
