Hello everyone!
I am currently looking at four different configs as shown below.
M1s have been proven for the past 12 months or more, whereas M2s have upgraded Wifi, Bluetooth, HDMI, all of which I don't absolutely need. In terms of chip performance, I am not a heavy/video/graphics user so will probably not notice a huge performance difference. But I prefer 32GB RAM for my web/ios dev workflow, and I am debating about 64GB (I don't need those extra GPU cores and upgrading to max chip just to get 64GB RAM doesn't sound appealing to me...but.. the more RAM the better...).
I plan to use this machine for at least 2 years (when M3 comes out, I will do my best to resist, but will be tempted when M4orM5/OLED shows up). Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you all
