    16gb Intel vs 8gb M1?

    I’m looking to get an used Macbook (doesn’t matter Air or Pro). I usually have hundreds of tabs open as well as several excel spreadsheets - which my 2015 MBP has been handling - but I want a faster processor. I’m unsure how the processor would affect the RAM usable. Would the 8gb M1 MBP be able...

    My wife has a 2017 MBA still running Catalina (10.15.7 - Yeah, I know).

When I check the keychain on her machine, there is no entry for the SSID she's trying...

    Hi which is the Fastest Most Stable macOS for Intel i9 MBP 16" in your experience? I have kept updating in the hope things would get better but Ventura blows locked up in a kernel panic or overheat 1-3 times a day. It's also slower than previous MacOS. I think they optimised code for M1 & M2...

    Devious marketing of M2

    Some sneaky marketing on Apple's part... This article points out that they're comparing the M2 Mac Mini to an older computer (2 generations back) and claiming it's 5x faster than this "bestselling PC." That's pretty devious. How does it compare to a current gen Intel CPU of a similar price...
