My 2010 MacBook was advertised with a 10-hour battery life. It lived up to it's reputation, and I was saddened to see later iterations of Apple laptops being sold that did not last as long. The thing was built solid - survived 4 drops onto concrete and tile floors, countless more onto carpet - no issues. It handled multitasking with aftermarket 16GB RAM like a champ. The only problem it had was that it ran Apple OS X, but at least it was customizable to where I could run that OS on a RAID1. Newer Macs are all designed to be "black boxes" inside, so I seriously do wonder if the 2010 models were the best for Apple MacBooks.

Is there a good, real reason latest macOS Mojave cannot be installed on an i7 with 8GB of ram?

Seems ludacris..
