The nice thing about Apple hardware resale value is that you can just buy now and upgrade later. I just unloaded a five year old MBP for a lot more than I'd ever have gotten for a five year old PC laptop. Ordered myself a fancy new M1 laptop, and if M1X/M2/whatever-it-is-called is substantially better, then I'll just trade it in on a new model. There's always a new hotness coming next year.
