Should a man even consider new machines or aim for a choice older refurb model these days?

[QUOTE="Toroidal, post: 1923029, member: 415933"] Well I just spoke to friend who has one of last year's M1 MBP computers and he says the power of these things is unbelievable, and that the M2 specs don't make that much of a difference to care. He explained to me that the M1 tech works in a fully custom integrated chip unlike other computer designers that are still optimizing separate components, so the old Apple way of tailoring components and design for performance has reached an evolution paradigm that was only imagined a decade ago. All that said, the one thing that still hinders my desire to even consider getting one is the preposterous price increase for storage capacity that should be considered the norm today. If it is true that the M1 and M2 chips include the storage itself, it looks like Apple found yet another way to make sure you pay extra for storage space and definitely won't be able to upgrade to more internal storage without considering replacing the whole chip, which will be impossible.
