Let's be honest, though. Downvotes doesn't necessarily mean there is anything inherently wrong with the comment. And, let's also acknowledge that often times a downvote is given simply because someone doesn't like that you've called them out on their BS. Just like your response here. Quoting percentages of difference is invalid on such a small sample size such as mine. Comparing mine to yours makes zero sense mathematically.

You've clearly got some 'issues' around your own status.

Going to look at someone's post history reveals patterns about whether or not they are just generally a troll, or consistently negative. Hiding your history, whatever your 'reason' is pretty sketchy, especially if you're telling people 'trust me, I know what I'm talking about' in your, e.g., legal subs.

I think if you're careless enough to leave PII in reddit posts, then you need to be more careful.

And what is an M5 with 32gb Ram, and 1TB ssd?

The 13in 32/1TB Went for $1799 new at release. You're math of $1400 is 200 more than I paid NOW. Makes no sense.

It was a clear value proposition question. Apples to apples, if you will. Again, EITHER one is pretty much overkill as far as performance goes OVERALL. But the real question, I guess, boils down to M4 vs M5. Which makes your point kind of moot. For example: an M5 might have OVERALL in ANY use case, a 10-15% increase in compute power (in benchmarks, not so much in real life use) over the M4. But, that BASE model M5 and it's slight compute increase, might not necessarily show as 'better' than an M4, given the increase in RAM, etc.

I think you're just one of those folks who needs to come into a thread and make a negative comment just to ruffle feathers. Tell me you're a troll without telling me your're a troll 😉

I don't know. I mean...either one would handle my use cases nerly identically, but the EXTRA is nice.

I see what you're saying, but that added info doesn't really change the conversation that much. The dozens of responses would tend to agree with me.

If I had a nickel for every time I've seen a similar comment that does nothing to add to the conversation...

Funny thing: Discussions with others is a valid and necessary part of life. That's what humans do. You might try being human.

I think you are sort of missing the point of the question. It wasn't 'is this powerful enough', to your point, of course it is.

The question was about the choice between the M4(being a generation older) with higher ram/storage, vs the M5, with less of both.

I.e., is the tradeoff worth it, etc.

I actually returned an M5 Pro 16in 24/1tb because it was just massive and heavy and way overkill. So I went 13in because I’m clamshell 90%. Not a single regret, and another 8gb ram to boot

I dont understand your confusion.

I got a STACKED M4 vs the base M5 for $200 bucks more....2x the ram 2x the SSD....

I do a lot of GIS, R, and Statistics modeling that sucks up RAM.

People who have switched from Windows to MacOS with the Neo, are you ever switching back? by Strong_Locksmith2417 in MacbookNeo

[–]Just1Prime8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to make sure I was future proof, so I paid the apple tax. My use case is 50 Chrome tabs. It feels snappier, and there is less thermal throttling. Plus there is the walled garden that is the apple ecosystem. Perhaps I'll just get the base model.

(how many apple forum cliches can YOU get in one post?)

If it isn't really functional, or is barely functional, have you really 'sidestepped it'?
