I use a MacBook, IB works great. Other than that I’m mostly using python. What are you worried about?

MacBook Air M2 with 16GB memory and running MotiveWave. Battery easily outlasts a full RTH session. A dream setup compared to my previous Parallels/Sierra setup which fully drained my battery in 90 mins.

Windows via Parallels works fine, I have a 4 monitor 32" setup with Macbook Air and/or Mac Mini, yes I know you can only have 1 or 2 monitors on those, it's not as fast using Windows ARM but you don't buy an Apple for performance, one day I will test a 7 monitor setup on the Pro, you can run MT4/5 via WINE.
