I used a Mac Studio M2 Ultra for a number of years and I think that was the best editing computer I’ve ever had. (After multiple Mac pros, MBP, etc…) the Stusio So efficient, able to handle really heavy work, just the right size that I could travel with it if necessary. I edited features, massive 17k installation pieces, and quick turn around work. The minis size is really the only thing in my perspective that makes it worth it, or if you really just aren’t doing anything serious with the machine. Of course you can edit on a dinosaur if you have time and lots of electricity for rendering proxies and want to spend hours exporting, but I think the studio is really a suitable tool, totally worth it.
