Ah, Jan, you have exposed yourself as an aging fanboy. I am currently in the
process of replacing my PC that I use for photo stuff. It is at least 15 years
old, perhaps 20, and has been finally left by the side of the road because it
won't run Windows 10.
So, my PC actually was used without problems longer than your Mac. The PC cost
me about $800 new. Replace every three years? That's at the least an ignorant
statement.

What?!?
And give up the pleasure of having to worry about and match up various bits of
third-party hardware, download and keep updated obscure bits of conflicting
drivers, constantly be on the lookout for DLL conflicts, and then replace the
whole thing every three years? ARE YOU CRAZY?
This is coming to you from a nine-year-old MacPro, the machine I use for photo
AND video editing. It's only slow when I have a web browser in the background
with 123,456 open web pages. :-)
The downside is that Macs, being replaced less than half as often as Windows
PCs, are bad for the economy. Keep buying those PCs! Grow the economy! (Out of
YOUR pocket!)
