Otherwise you will find it in 7 years and realise it's worth £50.
I can live with that. Have already put it in it's box and confined it to the top of the wardrobe.
It's been an expensive exercise in trying Apple for the first time, and finding them to have quality issues in their software and realising the extent of that.
In the grand scheme of things a £3k lesson achieved in under 6 months isn't a bad one as it now stops me further investing in Apple.
Actually it was a £5k lesson as I also purchased an iPad Pro 12.9" that I gave away. The MBP I'll just mothball.
Anyhow... lesson learned. Both Windows and Linux offer far more stable and predictable experiences with more longevity and productivity than Apple. Apple's hardware is incredible, but ultimately it's the software that define the experience, and when I needed support it was absolutely terrible (the USB thing).

Also the sunk cost is the initial cost - selling profit. Its a fast deprecating thing so if you don't want it sell it. Invest in a better backup at less cost and picket the rest. Otherwise you will find it in 7 years and realise it's worth £50.
