Which is exactly why you don’t want Mac OS on an iPad.How many tabs are not active.
On a Mac one can launch 30 apps opening all at once, try that on a iPad.

Yep. I was running windows 3.1 and Intel I-386 IIRC. Kids these days are spoiled.
I’m on my m1MBP 16” and it’s the first time I haven’t noticed the computer getting slower “effect”. My same year Dell Precision that I spent $4k on feels slower than day 1.
My MBP 16” may get an upgrade when I see the M5 chip. By that time I may opt for 32GB instead of 16. Hopefully Apple gets their memory prices in check.
I had a Performa 476 running System 7.1P with an IBM 1200 bps modem that was meant for an IBM AS/400 that the technician gave me. I also used an IBM OS/2 machine at 1200 bps at work. My work machine had Windows 3.1 and only an internal network connection. I preferred to remain productive since internet access was something new and not all that useful.
That's possible. My PowerPC machines were not happy with Leopard, even though Intel users were finally feeling the love from Apple.
Totally agree with the prices point. I’m in France and our prices are going up. I recently got a 14 inch MBP with the M2 Pro in it directly from Apple as I had to configure it, and with the release of M3 chips, they increased the price again by at least 100€.
I’ve been using Apple devices for decades, so switching to Windows is not an option for me and plus my work depends on Apple ecosystem, however, I definitely upgrade my devices at a much slower rate. The cost has gone up like crazy in France and apparently our prices are not as bad as some other countries in EU.
Facebook acts up, some websites hasve loading issues, I can't log out of one website, other annoyances.
My computer was great when I bought it, OS upgrades made it worse each time
AI? Really? M4, M5…M10. to do exactly what? It will not take one to the Maldives, Patagonia, Nepal, Madagascar…it has in reality, not the virtual one - zero value. I, for one, could care less about this gadgetry. Good luck.
With the speakers being worse on the newer 14” pros I wouldn’t swap my m1 with the m4 for free.
Weren't all EU countries the same price before? Only non-EU European countries like Switzerland were getting the even higher prices?
The speakers got worse? I haven't personally compared the M1 Pros and M3 Pros, but did t see any mention of that in review?
I know the Air speakers got worse from M1 to M2/M3 though, as I tested them myself...
Have you used OnyX or some similar maintenance tool? I've used OnyX since the early days of Mac OS X after running the scripts myself for a while.
Try making a clean install.
100% sure your computer is capable to handle all your demands.

I personally find it extremely un-likely since the M3 chips aren't even 6 months old yet, I'm sure apple is prototyping, but I doubt the will release anything this year, If they do, historically speaking it would be an upgraded Mac mini with the M3 chip.![]()
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman recently reported that the first Macs with M4 series chips will be released later this year, with more models to follow next year. In his Power On newsletter today, Gurman shared a more specific roadmap for these Macs.

Here is the order in which Gurman expects the Macs to launch:Gurman reiterated that Apple has internally tested an M3 Ultra chip, which would be suitable for the Mac Studio and the Mac Pro, but he said it is "all but assured that at least some of Apple's high-end desktops" will skip the M3 chip series.
Gurman said that Apple will emphasize the artificial intelligence capabilities of the M4 chip series.

There's definitely a quirk or two. I've had a few odd things happen, and a panic or two since upgrading.
Yep, used it many times. Still having the issues.
Another issue I have is many times when I go to click like on a reply it isn't highlighted with my mouse over it unless I move the page up or down then go back to it
Nah, if I do that and still have the issues I'd throw the computer through my window
Without directly messing with it, I have no idea. Are all browsers experiencing the same thing or just one? I have a problem with one web site in particular where nothing happens until I refresh but it's apparently some JavaScript that isn't loaded consistently.
Agreed! At the start of this year I was hoping to buy an M2 Pro-equipped Mac Mini later this spring, until I began having car issues and needed to get a new vehicle, and so I had to greatly change my financial plans. With this news, I may wait until the end of 2024 or early 2025 to get an M4 Pro-equipped Mac Mini, maybe after Anthro New England 2025 and I had filed my tax returns.
I use Safari mostly but Firefox seems OK
I forgot to mention that the up and down page function often just stops working on facebook and I have to refresh the page to get it working again.
It's freaking annoying
