Back in 2009-2010 I bought an entry level 13" MacBook Pro because it was fairly competitively priced compared to other options with similar specs, but the MBP had by far the better battery life, display quality, touchpad, and probably keyboard.

Same. I love watching people play games like Amnesia or the SCP ones, but I could never play them myself.

I can’t see any gif, using Boost.

I’m honestly surprised they made 10,000 sales.
