I still have one intel MBP 2015 diy upgrade to 512GB SSD
Boot camp installed Win11 running for easy office tasks, YouTube and web surfing
can’t believe this machine already 10 years old

Recently I want to get a desktop can run both macOS and Window
I think Macmini is the one..

We need to know M4 already using 3nm 2nd gen chip. Even M5 is come out, it could be 3rd gen or 4th gen chip...but to be honest processor chip already reach its bottleneck...
It cant be involve too much unless breakthruh on 2nm or even 1nm chip..

even after 8 mths the cheapest price is EDU pricing 2.1K base model
Not so much discount even though it’s already consider cheapest M4 Mac
