For some time now, my home desktop PC needs upgrade; I built it to last, back in the day, but it’s been 12 years, and the age shows. Not to the point of me investing money and effort in once again building “a rig to last”1, but it does show.
I have an opportunity to purchase a 2019 MacBook Pro (16’, one of those with the last amd64-compatible processors)2. And not simply purchase (at a very reasonable price), but test it for a week to make a decision. Here I am, testing, with the decision to make.
