@matigo I never said otherwise. My point was the 15-inch 2011 MBP was still relevant because it had the dedicated graphics card and up to 16 GB of RAM.

@sumudu I would recommend the best level of specs you can afford, as time goes by, a lower-specced machine will lose efficiency more rapidly. Examples are the two laptops I bought in 2011: one is a 15-inch MBP that's been retro-fitted with an SSD instead of the slow Hd and 12 GB of RAM; the other was an 11-inch MBA, with a 128 GB SSD and 4 Gb of RAM.
The kicker in this case is the RAM & the MBP's extra dedicated graphics card, that keeps it still relevant as a computer to this day. Whereas I've disposed of the MBA because it's 4 GB of RAM just wasn't coping well any more.
I replaced that MBA with a used, two-yr-old ex-Apple owned 11-in MBA. It had been used by an executive in Sydney and, as an Apple-supplied/owned device, had the highest specs available at the time: 512 GB SSD, 8 GB RAM, the 1.7 GHz Core i7 processor & Intel HD 5000 graphics card.
I'd recommend a13-in MBA (greater battery life than the 11-in), at least 512 GB SSD & 8 GB RAM.
@mttmccb I haven't seen any such method, and that's also with an iPhone SE.

I visited a small cheese factory today, or tried to. They're closed in August, will re-open on Friday, Sept 2. They have a pasteurisation plant onsite (nanny state says we might get sick if we eat cheese from raw milk) and their milk is available from various local retailers, such as general stores & fuel stops. The milk is a bit different to the "mainstream" milks otherwise available: it's a very pale yellow colour (not white) and tastes like proper milk should.
@phoneboy It's looking like it may well be legit, but they singled me out as being allegedly affected when I wasn't in the target group, having changed the password in April last year.

-Hello, RSPCA.
-Hello. There's a polecat clinging to my ceiling fan.
-I don't believe you.
-Well you'll have to take my whirred ferret.
That could have been most expensive, but for a $20 precaution.
I've just regurgitated some of my last cup of tea over the trackpad & keyboard of my new-ish MacBook Air.
Fortunately. it has a Moshi keyboard cover which save the keyboard from any moisture ingress. A quick wipe down was all that was needed.
