    I'd posted earlier about my dying windows laptop and looking for something new asap.

    Someone had mentioned going for Apple instead of Windows. So had me checking out the new M4 MBPs.
    An appealing thing about apple is their value down the line. If I buy a beast and use if for 3,4,5 years, I can still get a decent return if I was to sell it. Same can't be said for anything Windows.

    Found out that someone I know can get me a decent discount on any new Apple so def going M4.

    I'd be using it for:

    Digital Art - Photoshop with lots of layers, large filesizes.
    Video - Putting together audio visual artworks, large filesizes potentially but videos would only be 5 mins max. No half hour episodes.
    Music - Occasionally use Ableton Live for music production.

    Not really into gaming, and no 3D work either.

    Do you think the Pro version with decent RAM is enough?
    Or invest in the future and get the Max (the max max chip) with decent Ram?
