After a lifetime of being a Windows user, I've decided to give the MacBook M4 Pro a shot. I've always been on the hunt for something powerful, light, with good battery life, and a quality build, and I'm hoping this might finally be it.
I’m curious to see how the 24GB of ram stack up as I am kind of a heavy user. And, admittedly, I'm tempted to throw a game on here just to see what it can do.
I'll be putting it through its paces over the next few weeks and seeing what apple silicon is all about 😎
What do you all think? Any suggestions for making a smoother transition?

Can confirm it’s literally brand new as the previous owner just wanted a different color, I’ve been out of the Mac ecosystem for over 8 years any tips would be appreciated.
For those of you following along, I was planning on taking all of your advice and making the 1.5 hour drive to go get this MacBook Pro because it was an amazing deal.
Unfortunately, today my dog, my best friend, was diagnosed with cancer. Though I don’t know all the details, I have no doubt it will be very expensive to help him.
I lost my grandfather on Christmas eve of 2024, and my dad 16 days later in 2025 to cancer. Losing a third important man in my life is not an option right now.
So unfortunately all spare money I have for the foreseeable future will be spent making sure he gets the best treatment I can afford.
I don’t know how the process works, but I’m sure once I cancel my order it will be re-added to their inventory.
May the odds be in your favor, and hug your dogs tight tonight.
