People at MY company are all happy with everything about the new MacBooks.

I wonder if they will still like them once half their machines no longer have functioning keyboards.

Most of them have been using them since 2015-2016 and they're still all fine.

Yes those were the last generation were the keyboards are fine. No one uses computers older then 3 years here so we have large issues with having to send back macbooks multiple times a year.

I generally judge a company on what they have done recently not what they did 4 years ago.

No, those were the ones with the first-generation butterfly mechanism, and they have gotten better since then.

No one I know has had to return a MacBook. Even the one from 2011 that I sold to a friend around 5 years ago, which is still being happily used by his children.

Which macbooks do they have? 13 inch ones?
