I started a new job this year and they shipped me a 16" M1 Max with 64GB RAM. If you were planning to get one for dev work - particularly NodeJS 16+ projects - you're in for a treat. I have yet to hear the fan spin up, versus my old company's Intel Mac that competed with my heating system for most deafening sound I heard during the day.

I wish Amazon would sell more configuration options for the laptops- only giving 512 GB and 1TB is not enough options. Why do they only carry a select few config choices? Is it scalability? I can customize to my heart’s content on B&H and other retail websites…

Yea I never had a problem with my 17" with a backpack. Not that I'd lug to a coffeeshop or somewhere else I wouldn't be long.
I carry my 16” M1 Max MBP with me daily. I could see someone who has a really bad back not wanting to, but anyone healthy should not have a problem.

Arg! Now it’s the head game, do I take advantage of the low price? Or do I treat this as a sign that an M2 Max is right around the corner? I don’t want to buy the old model at the last possible minute like I did buying my 15.9” MacBook Pro 1 month before they released the 16”!

Update: waited, bought the M2 Max MacBook pro. Will be a nice upgrade over my 3.5 year-old laptop.
