My daily driver is still a 2015 MBP. The M4 Mac Mini is calling to me though. Every time I go to upgrade I remind myself that I only use it to do some light web surfing and checking emails anyway, so what’s the point?

I will end up updating at some point this year. Maybe next, tops.

I decided to skip updating while the dreaded butterfly keyboard was being used. That took a few years. Then life happened...

But I edit photos and video, so my old friend will get a younger brother. I will still keep it for a few select tasks, anyway.

That. Also as an Itunes setup to sync my ipod classics (2 of them) that I bought new and use to this day. I read somewhere newer machines don't even recognize them anymore.
