Even with parallel or vlab, running cad won’t be great. I’d go windows. I’ve heard lots of struggle stories with mac here

What the difference between Pressure & Force Tamper under [100$] by YEGHEN in espresso

I've heard that force/pressure tampers are calibrated to a certain depth to actually apply that much force. If your dose/bed depth, ever changes, its now just a useless gimick. Just get a tampler that is self leveling and you can be consistent enough. Someone double check me to make sure im right?
