I have an M1 for reference, with only 8GB RAM which is the real limiter here. I *can* use Jetbrains IDEs and I *can* build/develop software on it. It's a bit sluggish but doable. I try to not code on that machine, but sometimes it's the only machine I have available when I need to look at something.
- rs_rs_rs_rs_rs 2y agoYeah, having just 8GB ram was the reason I never bought the older versions. This one starts at 16 so it picks my interest.
- jghn 2y agoI do regret the 8GB with some frequency. There was a 2-3 week shipping difference when they came out and I was impatient. That said, the fact that a 5 year old laptop with 8GB RAM is usable even for coding situations is astounding.
