Can 🍎 Mac Mini M4 be used as the main machine ~ ~ ~

by Poster Nov 1, 2024 19
## 0. preface A novice who wants to get into the Mac system ~ I saw many people say that the price of the Mac Mini M4 version is very good, and I wonder if I can buy one for daily use as the main machine. * * Question * *: Is the 16G version enough for the following requirements ~ or which version is more suitable for these requirements ~ * There is no requirement for hard disk, and the 256G version is enough. Pair and high-load tasks run on the workstation. * ## 1. Daily needs 1. Zotero reads literature 2. Office three-piece set 3. VS Code, Pycharm debugging code, processing simple data 4. Sometimes use WebStorm to write some toy code 5. Obsidian takes notes 6. Chrome doesn't open many tabs. In a few cases, multiple tabs are opened 7. QGIS processes simple data 8. In terms of entertainment, play some Steam rough-like games, such as: Dead Cell (Mac supports)

    Of course, it's generally no problem to run a Windows virtual machine with 16G of memory.

    Yes, if possible, get a 2t lightning external panel to move the system over

    2000 is enough to buy an 8G m1

    With more than 16g of memory, m1 is enough for you

    It shouldn't be a problem. At least the software you mentioned, my 14-inch MacBook pro (m1 pro) can run smoothly
