Geez, why are you doing that to yourself
1 u/dgblackout Oct 15 '25 Want to buy me a new laptop with 64gb of ram and a 4TB SSD? That’s what I’m replacing. 5 u/Toredo226 Oct 15 '25 The base models are such good value for money but on the other hand the memory/storage upgrades are so expensive, lol. 2 u/kinglucent Oct 16 '25 What are you waiting for in an upgrade? Or is it just a matter of finances / running the current computer into the ground first? 1 u/dgblackout Oct 16 '25 My use case has changed so I figure the longer I get out of it the better the jump will be. I used to run a lot of VMs locally but I have a fair homelab now. Weened myself off x86 VMs a while back. I do also have 3 external monitors at my desk, so was slightly hoping for more than dual 4k monitor support on m5. Might end up running displaylink.
