I don't know a ton of 18yos who care about port availability, but even if the new ones do some dumb poo poo I figure she can pick up an older model on the cheap

unless this is an update to the physical design, i wouldn't expect too much port fuckery beyond changing the thunderbolt ports to usb3/thunderbolt ports.

not having a build server is like not having a bug tracker or offsite backups. don't inject your desktop environment into release builds

our build server is the mac mini that nobody wants because it's too slow to be directly usable by a human

the gtx might even help with rendering if it's just adobe stuff i3 internetting and words and games i5 bigger games and graphics i7 a needless upsell for most ppl but for those who need i7, they know how good it feel when u see 24 cores pegged 100%, sound skipping, display jittering it's like ur really working but its really the robot slave doing all the work and u can kick back
