I'm about to upgrade to a new Macbook. I've tried the MBA M2 and whilst it's great I've found the screen is a bit too small for me. The MBP 14 seems like the right size (I've checked out the 16-inch version and it's a bit too big). I'd like to get some advice from the group on a good configuration that will last me for a good few years.
My use case is...
I'm planning on buying from Apple, so am seeking ideas for which models and/or upgrades to consider.
My use case is...
- I travel a bit and do presentations (small ones and then some big keynote ones).
- I work with clients at various sites, plugging into screens for training, demonstrations and facilitating workshops.
- I spend a lot of time in spreadsheets crunching and analysing data (Office suite and a few others).
- I use Zoom, and most of the video conferencing platforms (a lot), with a lot of screen sharing and collaboration with clients.
- Main web browsers are Chrome for a lot of web-based apps - Miro, Mural etc.
- I do photo editing, but mainly in preparation for presentations.
- Occasionally fire up a few VMs, Docker etc. but most services are now cloud-based.
- I don't do any video editing.
