Where is the loyalty?

Today my “baby mac” officially broke.  This is the lap top that I have done all my writing on.  My first official, me computer, and a very close friend.   When I took it into the Mac store today, they tried to talk me out of fixing it.  Dylan,  the mac genius had lots of great reasons for buying new.   It is better value, longer warranty, and most importantly, all the new features of the mac book.  As a taurus, I a fiercely loyal, I have trouble going to another Starbuck barissta for my coffee and the thought of just handing in baby mac to some computer graveyard almost made me ill.     This computer holds photos of the girls from birth, my very first buy on Itunes from 8 years ago and of course endless amount of writing time.   I know that it can all be transferred over, but makes me think that this is what is wrong with people these days, to much of out with the old and in with the new.   Is there any  loyalty left?   My old  laptop is coming home in 7 days and I am planning a  celebration with a coffee from my favorite Starbuck Barrista,  Jen.
