There's something fun yet practical about holding onto a solid old computer (or car) that's been upgraded well beyond the original specs. Until this year, my main work machine was a 2009 Mac Pro with dual Xeon x5670s (12 cores total), 24GB RAM, RX580, flashed to 5,1 firmware and OpenCore'd to run the latest macOS. Yes there are beefier versions, but this was good enough.
Got an M1 Mac mini and miss a few things. The Mac Pro connectivity is still important. USB-C accessories are never as reliable. Also hate having to use DisplayLink for >2 monitors.
