Yes - you are 100% in that my system is relatively old...

I was initially going to purchase one of the last remaining Intel MacBook Pro's with additional RAM - but am now second guessing my decision - as I think the future will most likely centre around the M1 chip

Doing a bit more research... it's starting to appear that my current MacBook Pro may not even be compatible with Carbon... which I understand because it is an older system

All this aside... do you think that Carbon will make tasks requiring CPU power easier?

Thanks,
