Seems solid but it is m4 pro and 512gb ssd. Hoping for 1 tb ssd deal soon, but the $1800 m5 pro microcenter may not be back anytime soon

Not bad, but we've seen better for the previous gen. From Dec 24 to Jan 25, the base M3 pro was $1,250-$1,000 in store at Costco, since the M4 pro was already out at the time. Some lucky people were able to price match with Best Buy.

It doesn't look like that's happening this year since Costco doesn't even sell the base M4 Pro in store AFAIK.

My usage doesn't justify spending this much on a laptop. Currently have an M1 Air with 8GB of RAM. Definitely want 16GB at least but man, these prices are high for me haha. I've been hunting for a used base M1 Pro but those are going for $650+ and it's a 5 year old machine.

Maybe I just need to accept it and pay to play..

If your current Air is doing fine, why upgrade to a M1 Pro?

Mainly just want 16GB of RAM. In starting to feel only having 8Gb during multitasking.

For $650, you probably could get a M3 with 16GB of RAM. Probably no reason to spend that much on an M1 Pro when you can get a processor that is 2 generations newer.

Ok, glad to hear I'm not out of touch when I think M1 Pros listed for $650+ is a bit wild. I'm really in no rush to buy since this M1 Air is good enough for now.

i would think for this kind of coin you'd get more than 512gb ...unless maybe apple is trying to sell some cloud subscription thing. which is just another monkey on your back.

I think this is a decent price for an outgoing model. December of last year I got the 16 & 20 core with 1 tb ssd for $2100 from costco. Machine has been fantastic. It was a big upgrade (long overdue) for me from macbook pro that I bought in 2013. It had 8 gb ram & 128 gb had, it still runs but multi tasking on it was getting very slow and space was finally running out. Very happy with the newer machine.

Just curious, what makes you say that that deal may not be back anytime soon? I'm definitely kicking myself right now for not buying one then...
