I will start: I have an M1 macbook pro with 8gb 256ssd that will be 3 years old in a couple of months. It still is blazing fast and works really well.

Ones that are used at least once a month:

2021 16” MacBook Pro M1 Pro, 32GB, 1TB - still blazing fast.

2012 15” MacBook Pro, 16GB, 500GB SSD - has had the logic board and battery replaced, running Ventura well with OCLP, my wife uses it daily.

2002 PowerBook G4, 1GB, 60GB SSD - use it mostly for playing DVDs and old games. Runs OS 9 crazy fast. Original battery still lasts about an hour.

1998 PowerBook G3, 250 MB, 2GB HD - use it for retro games. No repairs ever other than a making a new PRAM battery last year.

I have other MacBook Pros that have been retired that I don’t use anymore. A 2014 and a 2010. Also a 1997 PowerBook 3400c that is non-op.
