Should I go with m4 or m4 pro
I ordered the mac mini with m4 pro 14c & 20c, 48Gb ram and 1 Tb ssd. However, now I'm kind of feeling buyer's remorse and I'm not sure if I should've gone with the m4, 32Gb, 1Tb model. The price difference with education discount is about 900€.
This machine would be my main device. I like to learn new skills and develop my existing ones further on my free time, so the machine would come for a very mixed use. For example I like coding and I have even made my own game. In the past I have also done some photo editing. I would also like to be able to run a virtual machine. Even though mac is not a gaming machine, it would be nice if it could occasionally run some casual games like snowrunner.
Last time I made a mistake of buying a macbook with 8 Gb ram, which is not enough for my use. Please Reddit, help me out here, which configuration should I pick, if I want it to last at least 5 yrs.
TLDR; I don't know which spec to choose for the mac to last at least 5 years in my use.
