One of my favorite things to do around the holidays is host friends and family at my home for movie nights.

Keeping a Mac or Windows PC running for a long time can be challenging. It's not as complicated as it used to be -- as anyone who remembers life before SSDs and the internet can tell you -- but at the least, there are basic software maintenance tasks, and repairing or upgrading hardware inevitably becomes difficult, if not impossible. You'll be lucky to own a computer that has parts available for a full decade.
