I already own a 14” M1 Pro MBP 16GB which I only use occasionally, as I’m more inclined to use my 12.9” iPad Pro for most things nowadays. Price seems like too good to pass up though, especially considering the amount of RAM

Ask them to show the battery health. It being plugged in is a red flag.
>>
>>107539535
it won't get macos 27 next year. they deprecated the base A12 this year and the M1 is just a beefed out A12Z
>>
>>107539639
95%. Used by seniors. Clearing out stuff s as they’re moving in with family
>>
>>107539666
What features does the m1 lack? Seriously. All Apple AI slop is optional that can (and should) be turned off
>>
>>107539666
RAM was the bottleneck for those iPad models
>>
>>107539666
What are you about? A12 iPads still got the iPadOS update this year

Source: Your ass.
There's been zero indication Apple are going to drop the M1 alongside Intel.
>>
>>107539535
doesnt that shit only run some jank version of fedora?
>>
>>107539676
If there's no surprises. I'd take it at that price. That's a steal. You'd be lucky to get a base model M1 Air for $400, let alone a machine like that. Those things still go for $1k+ second hand.

Only because troonix devs struggle to code anything for ARM, let alone Apple Silicon.
>>
>>107540283
linux kernel runs fine on arm i have linux 5.10 running on my phone and 6.1 running a server on my desk (orangepi 5)

i think the problem is apple firmware is fucked up and breaks standard booting from usb
>>
>>107539535
Worth it. Only thing that would disqualify it from being so is if it were the 8gb ram model. Flip it for around $550 easily if you aren't going to use it.
>>
>>107539535
Personally I would want at least 24 gb of ram but it’s a good deal regardless
>>
>>107539535
I'd take it for the battery life alone. That shit is insane compared to my older linux laptops
>>
I wouldn't buy it because the software is shit and they snoop your files without consent. MacBooks were top tier when you could swap OS
>>
>>107539535
that 32gb ram is worth the $400 alone kek

I can't decide between a macbook pro, or a framework 16. I daily drive linux and I'm not too keen to try macos, but the battery life and performance of apple silicon is super appealing.
