Who says Apple is getting more expensive?

I think price/hardware unit (CPU/ram/SSD) is actually lower, especially if we target premium models. Strictly speaking you have to spend more on absolute base, but then you get more hardware capacity. The same 3k now gives me double storage, 33% more ram, and faster chip (M3 pro Vs M5 pro) than the

Time for a computer upgrade? Any tips to help speed up my computer?

I have a very similar computer to you at home and I haven’t felt the need to upgrade yet for audio production reasons. Running pro tools and some pretty large mixes. Granted my m3 pro max computer at work is faster in sessions but not so much that I need to upgrade now. Maybe next year. Apple laptop

Apple ends ā€œhonor systemā€ for the education discounts

Get a certified Apple refurb. Those are 300 off regular Apple price. I’ve been using an M3 Pro for a couple years or so already and zero issues

MacBook Neo's AppleCare+ Repair Fees Are Lower Than All Other Macs

So far, once you understand its existence, it keeps winning. I’m on an MBP M3, which I love, and not in the market for another computer, but here I am, salivating for some reason. I’m not even the demographic for this machine, and not idiotic enough to actually swap it for what I own, but it’s a hel

Buying a Macbook Pro only for it to be an ā€œAbleton Machineā€?

Everyone’s saying older but a M4 MacBook Air 16GB can handle like 75 tracks in ableton (idk about plugins) from reviews. Honestly? I’d shoot for the 14ā€ M5 MacBook Pro. You’ll get insane battery life, the latest gen chip (Apple iterates pretty heavily between M series chips) and an Open Box version

What should I look for when buying a new Mac that’s primarily (and frequently) used for editing photos in LrC (desktop).

You could just get the base model 16" Macbook Pro and you would be happy with it. The 16" screen is invaluable for photo editing, IMO. So don't even think about the 14" one. People will tell you to get masses of RAM. That costs a lot extra. I run an M3 Pro with what was the base of 18GB at the time,
