My work laptop is a 2019 Mac with 32GB of RAM and a 6-core Intel chip. My home machine is a mid 2015 with 4 cores and 16gb ram.
For the life of me, I cannot discern any performance difference between the two. One thing I can discern is that the screen on the newer one has a big yellowish blob all around the edges of it, its left command key works half the time and it crashes constantly. I am so happy when I get to return to working on my home machine and god forbid it finally shits the bed on me because I have no idea what I would get next.
That’s whole other ordeal. This was a replacement for a broken machine I _had_. And now I have to wait til January to get a new one. I think I’ll just use my external keyboard and monitor for a while.
