I agree there might not be a wide range of choice but this runs the most popular operating system, has arguably one of the best keyboards from legacy phone manufactures who's focus was keyboard input and up to date specs. Not only is it not "no choice" it would probably be one of the better choices had we a wider range available.

Well I get that in this situation it's possibly not.

Take another country like Japan though where it's 0 tolerance - would you have the same view?

Why?

I often search for things at home on my personal laptop only to see them on my facebook at work on a different location/machine.

I assume its due to the fact your amazon has been linked to her facebook account at one point or another as you were logged in to both at some point.

"If you are on a Free or Standard plan your anonymity is guaranteed."

You should make it clear that you are talking about Slack plan and not abot plans.

What's wrong with shopify?

Also I'm sure you can do it with stripe very easily on your "own" site.

Out of interest if it's something you don't need or care about why are you opposed it? You don't care so much you would donate money to oppose it?

Rarely as a Japanese businessman can you quit a job and find another job at either the same or higher pay grade.

The market here revolves around hiring university graduates up to a year before they graduate and then training them from the start in whatever position you want them to do. Very few people change jobs and if you jump from jobs every 3-5 years its seen a negative sign on your CV.

Thats kind of my point. Its been almost 4 years and apple hasn't made the devices (at the same price bracket) any more performant.

Will the software they make over the next 4 years stay at the same level of requirements and run just as smoothly as everything seems to run on my air after 3 years?

I am not sure that is the case looking at how the OS is moving and how they are treating performance.

Do you honestly believe that the current macbook (note the 12" not the new pro) will not wanes in performance in the next 4 years as we have historically seen with the macbook air?

I ask because while my macbook air coming up to 3 years and feels almost like a brand new machine - the current 12" is actually slower than my air. Can i really expect that to have 4 years of solid performance updates on the macbook?

In that case should i expect my air to last me the next 4 years and do just well for a solid 8 years of great performance?

Look closely around the red and yellow rectangles and just about and edge meeting the blue and you will see. Open all 3 and tab one to the next and you will notice the big difference.
