I can’t believe my M1 Mac is almost 3 years old, performs just like the day I bought it (blazingly fast).

My work Thinkpad from the same period feels half way dead.

That's likely more a reflection of the software you run (and update over time) than of the hardware itself, no?

It helps that the Apple Silicon CPUs run so cool. In other laptops your CPU cooler and fans will fill up with dust causing the CPU to thermal throttle.
