busybee fluffy rambles

Seeing this post made me think I should also list my computers and their purposes/vague specs. Because I’m that kind of a nerd.

What counts as a “computer” for this list is subjective. I’m not including pure video game consoles (I’d be here all day if I did) or phones (big same) but I am including things like tablets, but only ones which feel computer-y, if that makes any sense (like, no Android tablets, and I’m leaving off an ancient iPad named fluffysaurus).

Sadly I don’t have any proper vintage computing stuff anymore (unless you count a couple of neat old PDAs, anyway).

November 29, 2024: Updated more things

I got my Mac Studio yesterday, to replace the Mac mini in my office (the mini now replacing the 13" MacBook Pro in my recording studio, the MacBook Pro replacing the frustrating Lenovo laptop in the living room), and I have all my stuff set up on it. I went with the 10-core M1 Max model (with the upgraded GPU) and 2TB of RAM, sticking to the stock 32GB of RAM.

Today I wasn’t expecting to get a lot of work done due to my brain still feeling like it’s been through a juicer, and also because my new Mac mini arrived today. So I got to go through the drudgery of reinstalling everything while also seeing the news of the world exploding around me! Hooray!

Anyway, just some random setup notes.
