Current generation of desktop/laptop processors are plenty powerful. I’m unconvinced they cannot fulfil today’s computing needs.

As an M1 owner, M1 just does it better for mobile computing purposes. There is no denying this.

You know, there was a time when people stopped buying cheap shirts made in English factories that employed kids. They were good shirts, too.

Is it worth it, though? Is being "better for mobile computing purposes" worth all of this, and whatever else will come next - which we know is just a matter of time, because no one cares enough to stop buying from them?
