Should I not play games on my Macbook Pro?

I heard that for laptops, gaming is not a good idea because of the questionable resiliency of the keyboards and trackpads. Is this knowledge applicable to MacBook Pros as well? I know Apple makes products that last, but when it comes to onboard keyboards and trackpads, I'm unsure of it.


So should I not play games on my MacBook Pro? To avoid ruining the keyboard or trackpad? Or is this something that I don't need to worry about?

My feelings can't be hurt, one has to have them first. LOL 😁



Comfortably numb, that's me. 😀


It easy to misunderstand what someone is saying to you when you are only reading text on a screen.

Netiquette.

MasterChief: ds store, who is notorious among the regulars here for the carelessness with which he tosses off glib, unsupported, inaccurate, incomplete and often irrelevant commentaries on all things Apple, is the ONLY person I've encountered in over 15 years of daily participation in these forums who complains that Apple keyboards and/or trackpads wear out or break down quickly. I don't know anyone else who thinks that, but ds store is so fond of repeating it in these forums that you might have come across it several times without realizing that they all came from the same troll. As this thread amply demonstrates, he flaunts his disregard for accuracy as if it were some sort of great distinction he had earned, instead of mere proof that he's too lazy to qualify or back up anything he says. Please give him the negligible credence he deserves.
