Microsoft office is the pinnacle of power user apps. Usually you need a top CPU and GPU to run those excel spreadsheets.

I believe storage and RAM are still separate. I like the idea, though, no pulling from storage to RAM just to review content. Apple sells 8GB of additional ram for $200, sooooo 256 GB would be 6,400?Oops used my time machine engine again 😝
What to Expect at November's Apple Event: Macs With Arm-Based Apple Silicon Chips
The biggest change I hope to see in the future is a new unified memory architecture that unifies memory and storage. It would require very fast storage to achieve ram level speed but it would mean for example that a video file would play direct without needing to be shuffled from storage to ram...
With the M1, the RAM is on the SoC.I believe storage and RAM are still separate. I like the idea, though, no pulling from storage to RAM just to review content. Apple sells 8GB of additional ram for $200, sooooo 256 GB would be 6,400?
With their current architecture, I don’t see how they work in separate RAM that’s still unified. It’d still have to be on the SoC and the SoC would have to be bigger. Like, how would they have a MacPro with expandable RAM?
It's absolutely better than the butterfly keyboard, but I prefer the old chicklet keyboard. I'm typing this on my "fixed" 16" keyboard, and I can't wait to get back home to use my old keyboard. This feels like typing on a block of wood. The other one... clicks? Hard to describe why I love the old one. Yeah, I think it's the lack of "click" in the new one. But I'm an old fart who learned to type on an actual typewriter. I love the tactile feel of a good click underneath my fingers. Funny, though... when I'm typing on my old keyboard, my wife says, "You sound like you're trying to beat your laptop with how loud and furious you're typing."
IDMTBAD, but I am just saying that it's "Not Supported, by Apple", you can get them to work, but it's just not supported. I guess we're just at a lingo impasse?
