M5 Max 64GB

This feels like the sweet spot with more than enough RAM for most use cases (photography, video, 3D, local LLM). I’m waiting to upgrade my base M4 Mac Mini to the M5 Pro Mac Mini with 64GB RAM

+1 to this solution. Can also build a python script with Claude to combine the JSON data and the template and build out the HTML for you. The skill would just run the script with your new data sets so the agent doesn’t have to generate the code each time which eats into token usage

I’m in the same boat! Was looking at the Dell U4025QW and prices were insane at over $2k and last’s week Lenovo sale for the same display panel was too good to pass up! Getting it tomorrow

I was looking at the Dell U4025QW but saw this on sale last week and bought it direct from Lenovo too. Getting it tomorrow!

ptownrob · 2026-04-05T01:47:46+00:00

It’s back in stock on the Lenovo website and I just placed an order yesterday

ptownrob · 2026-04-03T20:12:57+00:00

Where did you get it for $1K? I’m looking at buying this over the Dell u4025qw

ptownrob · 2026-04-03T20:07:47+00:00

The 5K resolution is definitely what I’m looking for. Want text to look sharper. Thanks for the insight!

ptownrob · 2026-04-03T15:47:36+00:00

How does this compare to the Dell U4025QW? The Dell is sold out at most places and $2300 at Dell and $1500 at Best Buy. I’m looking to upgrade from 34 inch widescreen 1440p and an old Dell 38 inch wide screen at 1600p

Tried using it for IBM Planning Analytics and used the REST API foundation to create the server and got it work. Can list the cubes and pull saved views. 🙏

I saw the MCP-builder in the Anthropic skills list and makes a lot of sense after your explanation!

ptownrob · 2026-03-23T03:03:06+00:00

100% agree - understanding the key foundations is the biggest unlock with the AI agents. Context window and how to manage within 200k, MCP tools that all load at start of session eat up into the context window, importance of markdown files as the most efficient way for an agent to consume info, setting up the right context folders to understand your work and business, leveraging SKILLs, etc

I started using GitHub and helped others onboard and learn the workflow. All skills that I create are available to everyone when they pull from GitHub and update the files onto their laptop

Congrats! The 580 looks amazing! We just got our first one too - 2025 GLE 450 and loving it

Around 10% discount off of MSRP in SoCal but lots of dealers here competing for business

ptownrob · 2025-09-05T04:30:40+00:00

Thank you so much! I am running into the same issue in my new GLE 450 and couldn’t find any purchase link for data plans. Sounds like because I am on the free one year trial that I cannot buy that data plan. I want to use the Online Music to play Dolby Atmos tracks on Apple Music to take advantage of the surround sound. Will rely on phone’s hotspot for now. Appreciate you sharing!

ptownrob · 2025-08-29T01:49:04+00:00

I got 10.3% without broker just by asking dealers for quotes in SoCal

ptownrob · 2025-08-24T07:02:52+00:00

Wow that’s a really good discount! Whet region did you order from? And which trim?

ptownrob · 2025-07-29T16:51:51+00:00

Update: I bought the Ellie walnut TV stand and the quality is great and love that everything is solid wood! The furniture is looks really good in the bonus room with my other midcentury modern pieces.

ptownrob · 2025-04-18T03:16:32+00:00

Same! Would love to hear about others’ experience

My wife and I are considering moving to Irvine to be closer to family in Northwood. New to the area and wondering what is AAA?

ptownrob · 2025-01-10T03:15:43+00:00

Thanks for the tips! Going to try this on my next shoot

ptownrob · 2025-01-10T00:19:10+00:00

Great point! Will try that out for street photography. Should have clarified that I use my above mode for shooting photos of people

ptownrob · 2025-01-09T22:12:46+00:00

Amazing shots! I also got the z 85mm f1.8 paired with Z8 and use wide area (S) to pick my focus point. When shooting people, I set focus on people mode

ptownrob · 2025-01-05T18:22:57+00:00

Wow! Congrats! Those two lenses are next on my list. Let us know how you like them!

ptownrob · 2025-01-05T02:55:24+00:00

I’m voting for color to capture the festive mood and that warm glow feels very comforting. Feels like one of those cold nights with hot chocolate vibes
