2 iMacs a MacBook Pro, 2 iPhones, and 3 iPads. I rarely use my new iMac. My MacBook Pro was good for about 8 years. I don’t have a printer but if I need something printed I go to a friends with my iPad and print wirelessly. If you do a lot of typing you might like the MacBook. I like the interface of the iPads best. I don’t like the mouse with the iMac or MacBook. Somehow the iPads are easier for me ergonomically and I like their portability.
