You can have my 2015 MBP when you pry it from my cold dead hands.

But yes. We recently sold off a bunch of hardware resulting from workforce reductions; I clued a friend in on this and he was begging me to nab him a 2015 MBP. The obsession is real, it is the last truly great Macbook in a while, in my own opinion.

The 2015 MBP is the one I don’t use any more but keep anyway because I know it will never fail me. I also stay one version behind on it, so it’s the only system I have using Sierra still. But my main system now is an iMac pro and you would have to send in troops to separate me from it. Although I still can’t stand their crappy keyboards, regardless of color.

I believe those are also the last linux friendly ones so you know that once you either get too sick of the newer OS X whatevercat or the version your are stuck on stops receiving security updates you still have useful hardware.
