Using a MacBook Air for web dev, and it’s plenty. For photoshop I’d probably want something with a faster CPU and better GPU, tho.

That’s my thinking. However, a 100 kLOC project in Visual Studio is pretty heavy handed as well
Can’t comment on that as I don’t generally use IDEs.
Which one and what’s the proc/mem? What kind of web dev?
Python, JavaScript mostly. Not sure the processor (it’s a 2019 model year, tho). 16GB memory.

Snappier/more responsive UI-wise than the 16” MB Pro I got from work, fwiw.
