Hi!
I am trying to guide some colleagues in choosing their next laptop and a lot of them want to use Macs this time. I off love this development but we have problems choosing between a MB Air and MBP 16" for some. This is the problem; they are using Word a lot for working with, for example, standardisation documents. These are huge word-docs and takes ~ 25 mins to load fully (in Print mode) on a M1 Air, so it is not really convincing to them that they should pick up an Air. For 95% of the other tasks they do they just work in Office, so the Air should really be enough, but these word-monster-docs really strains the computer.
Could anyone with an M1 MBP 16" (or 14") try to open the 3GPP specification 38.331 (https://portal.3gpp.org/desktopmodules/Specifications/SpecificationDetails.aspx?specificationId=3197, press "version" and then click the number on the latest variant)? You have to first download a zip-file, extract the word document and then open it. In print mode, and measure the time until you can scroll down to the last page (p963 or something like that). That would be really nice.
