Need a small footprint desktop with decent power Hardware and Software by wolfyshoo Hi everyone! Looking for a normal smart speaker for the living room - first of all, to sound great music. Most importantly deep bass, clear midrange and unclipped top end. Voice “smarts” - assistant, timer or weather forecast - are a nice addition, but not a priority.

The macbook outperformed the Dell for everything I did by far. Re: Need a small footprint desktop with decent power Hardware and Software by trcooke I'm a developer too and 14 years ago I bought an entry level MacBook Air and honestly it was probably the best laptop I've ever bought and I used it for development for years and years. It used to creak a bit if I ran more than one instance of IntelliJ, but other than that it took everything I threw at it.
