      I mean, why not? If you’re not necessarily a gamer or need computing power for dev stuff, why buy the latest and greatest?

      In the end, buying new hardware every other release is also just consumerism. The performance of a modern day mid range CPU is absolutely overkill for everyday use

        I can’t argue with that. It’s not power efficient, but it doesn’t matter much if it’s not running 24/7.
