One major point which this article failed to mention, is that macOS only lets you run two VMs at the same time.
So if you were thinking of getting a mac mini to use as a build server, just buy the absolutely cheapest model.
Unlike on Linux systems, you're not allowed to have enough VMs to actually fully utilise the hardware. So buying headroom (resource wise) is a complete waste.

- justinclift 3y agoThanks, didn't know that. Sounds like we could potentially get some Windows ARM64 builds happening as well then. Might be a project for a future weekend. :)
