I wouldn't think they last longer. They MIGHT be better than PC? But I mean, you can custom build your PC so just use the right components and it will be durable and effective
I've always bought PC's so I don't really know the difference. I know that Macs are a lot more expensive, but I don't know if that necessarily makes them better. Do they last longer?
i noticed you both said that there could be something in his personal life that's the reason for him flaking and stuff. that's possible, but i do know at least his reason for it. he tells us he's tired from working 40 hours a week (he works in sales and coldcalls people). we all work, most of us make the time to hang out. so yeah it's possible there's something else and that's his cover for it
Most personality change happens from ~18-22 years of age, and it really doesn't stabilize until you're financially independent from your parents, so it could stretch out to 25-26 for some people. It's possible it's just a phase where he's experiencing some negative mood issues or maybe this is a new development in his personality. I would say give it some time and be more patient with him, but still express your honest opinion whenever you feel like he's doing something unacceptable. Instead of chiding him for it, I'd ask him why he keeps on doing it and why there's been an alteration in his behavior. It may be something personal happening in his private life that he doesn't know how to handle.
