With the M1 Macs Apple have done quite a lot to address these issues.

The M1 MacBook Air I’m using feels as reliable and cool as mid 2000 MacBook. Complete night and day difference to the hot mess which was my previous 2018 MacBook Pro.

I still wish Framework would scale faster and start selling the the EU today. But building a hardware company is slow and hard.



My GF has a M1 mac and is quite happy with it. I have a problem rewarding Apple with another purchase, given the dismal performance of this machine.

The 2018 mac was a top of the line purchase. I think it came to about $5000 AUD if memory serves. It's essentially worthless now because I can't sell it in it's current state.

I might cave when they update the 16in to M1X sometime soon, but I won't be happy about it.
