I won't bother to go through this point by point because it's not worth my time. The one point I wanted to show was that you had said (or directly implied, I care not how you want to call it) that someone was a problem for wanting to continue to use their older computer. It was rude, it was ignorant, it was wrong, and you frequently use this type of attitude that belittles others.
I don't care who uses planned obsolescence, it's still unethical. I also don't care if you feel the need to upgrade your computer every 3-4 year- that's your right, and rest assured that there will always be many people who envy you for it, but upgrading your computer/ buying new gear to replace older/ buying new cars every couple years isn't adding to your assets, it's ncreasing your liabilies. You are assuming that it's ok to constatly be paying money to own your assets. It's not.
I'm sure you will disagree with me on this as well and will have another pointed response. be my guest; it's not worth my time.
