Nothing is lose and everything still works. You can also bootcamp to windows 7 or 10 and run windows native (not through a vm). 90% of the time using my macbook I am on windows running p99.
Macs are as susceptible to slowdown as PCs though, plus with macs you generally have a hard time playing a lot of the latest games right?

Agree on the "junk in two years" thing though, my latest PC was a mid spec buy from a small company on eBay, had it 1 year and it's been fine. It was about $550-600. If $600 gets me a good 2-3 years I still think of it as a good investment. The only game it's ever locked up on was actually when it was still new, it didn't like Planetside 2 at all but according to the internet it's not optimized very well anyway :/
