Something people don’t talk about is the fact that Macs retain their value much more than PCs, you could easily sell a 2-3 year old MacBook for $500-600. So when you want to upgrade, sell the current one, and use the proceeds towards the purchase of a new one.

That is a fine idea, and very true, but I've never seen any substantive value to upgrading a mac in any less than five years, and only then because new software tends to be incompatible after that long.

How snobbish of you.
