So yeah, not a great time for me to be buying a computer, but I did have to buy a computer.
podcast-host
And I did buy a computer, and it's not the computer of my dreams, but it is a computer.
podcast-host
And oh, here's my other strategy with this.
podcast-host
This is my wife's next computer.
podcast-host
She's got a Mac Studio now.
podcast-host
It's fine for her now.
podcast-host
By the time the M8 or M9 is out, that probably won't be fine anymore.
podcast-host
Maybe macOS will drop it.
podcast-host
She's got an M1 Mac's Mac Studio with 64 gigs of RAM.

everything she needs perfectly fine it's a great computer it's faster at xcode than my computer obviously right like everything about it is great she has no problems with it but someday support for it will drop this is her future computer an m5 an unbidden m5 max max studio with 64 gigs of ram and a four terabyte ssd
podcast-host
also the reason that I'm not too worried about not having to lease because a lease would make sense.
podcast-host
Oh, it's a time you ever give it.
podcast-host
You should totally lease it and then give it back.
podcast-host
That's perfectly what you do.
podcast-host
But it's like, no, this computer has a future purpose in life and it will be fine for that purpose for her computer, especially if three years from now, one or both of my children are out of the house.
podcast-host
We'll see how that goes.
podcast-host
I mean, you kind of know the answer to that because I do feel like an unbinned M5 Max with 64 gigs of RAM and a total of 8 terabytes of storage attached to it can last me a pretty long time.
podcast-host
Again, I'm on seven years of using an Intel Mac Pro that was similarly specced with half the storage and ancient CPU and everything.
podcast-host
I could use this computer.
