I daily a M1 Max / 64GB / 2TB and have for some time.

My current company bought me an M4 Pro / 24GB / 512GB.

There is a significant amount of dust on it. I use it every once in awhile when I need to access my corporate Apple ID which is tied to the thing. I'll be really sad if they force me to use it on the daily. Luckily nobody seems to be checking usage.

I know it's not what you asked, but I think it's where you're headed -- an adequately specced Mac instead of two half-spec. :) I can't imagine splitting a workload between two physical machines again -- like when I needed a PC and the M1. It's a real PITA to juggle boxes.
