    iMac M1 enough, spend loads on a Mac Studio + Monitor or hold out for iMac M2?

    Within the next two/three months I am going to need to upgrade from my 21.5 inch late 2013 iMac. I work with stock photography and video and use my iMac for editing photography and now some 4k video too (mostly I do selection and organising, editing metadata, resizing submissions of images)...

    Is there a way to uninstall Rosetta from M1?

    I need to push out software using an MDM (Addigy) that requires Rosetta, and want to see what this will look like to the end-user, but my M1 Macs are already running Rosetta. Is there any way to uninstall Rosetta from an M1/Silicone Mac so I can run a realistic test?

    Hi. I'm going to replace my 2009 24 inch iMac soon and am trying to decide whether to go for the 2020 iMac 27 inch or wait for the larger M1(X) 27/30 inch iMac. I know coming from such an old machine that either will be a great machine but I also love Battlefield 3 for casual gaming so I know...

    Success: MacOS 9.2 - OSX 10.4 on M1 via QEMU x86

    Hey All, I figured this would be of interest, it's pretty frictionless to run PowerPC OSes via QEMU x86. I fully expected more problems. I haven't seen any try this but I would not be surprised if someone here already has. The requirements are as follows: Xcode + Xcode-select installed x86...

    How does M1 perform as a server?

    I was tempted to name this thread, "GoFundMe: help me replace all of my servers..." :D Hypothetically, has anyone seen impressive benchmarks on the M1 performing as a server? API/Web/Database/FTP/Email... etc? Traditionally speaking, service providers use our favorite flavor of Linux and load...

    YouTube M1 Reviews and Peripherals

    Is it just me, or are most of the M1 YouTube reviews somewhat lacking? No one even mentions how USB peripherals work with these new Macs. You'd think some of them would at least say a word or two about driver compatibility and such. But nope. They just run Geekbech, export a 4K video in FCP and...
