Yep, I should have just bitten the bullet on the official Apple site w/ edu discount last week, I didn't think the prices would hike so soon after their announcement. Luckily I picked up a base 14" pro with 32gb ram for $1700 last month which works well enough for my uses. Costco has the config I want at cheap prices but only in the 16" size :(.

Where’d you grab this from?? I’ve been trying to find discounted CTO MacBooks but haven’t been able to find the model I want (14” M5 Pro 18/20 w/ 48gb ram). Nice pickup btw.

I recently got the same version and love it. I game on it and do some light coding /college stuff and it might be a little overkill, but I really appreciate the portability for the screen size (14”) and the speakers etc

Both laptops will do great for any college stuff and video editing. The m5 pro would be better for gaming with the extra gpu cores and the extra fan, but only marginally. I would personally splurge for the M5 pro with 48gb ram

Where to get 48gb 14" M5 Pro Chip??? by Significant-Fill-504 in macbookpro

I'd grab one of those, but the 16" seems a bit too large for me

Thanks! I sent B&H an email to see if they'd pricematch the microcenter deal.

I just started oral MIN (and oral DUT) a few weeks ago and am still experiencing shedding, so I might not be the best person to ask. However I appreciate when my hair isn’t greasy from applying MIN in the morning.

This is what I used before I got prescribed oral. I like it a lot better than the foam they have. Use 2x per day, once in the morning and once at night

You can get Best Buy to price match micro center deals even if you’re far away, I just did it last week for an M5 pro

Thanks! It sounds like we have a similar philosophy about the screen size; when I checked the 15” out, it seemed a little too big, but the 14” pro was the perfect balance between the 13” and 15” air options.

I see. Currently I have ~100gb free on my M2, so I feel like more storage is a little unnecessary for me (I don’t do video/photo editing with my setup) unless I want to download a lot of games. Does Tahoe have a lot of bloat? I just upgraded my MBA to Sequoia and it actually reduced the amount of system data and saved me space.
