About

Business/Sponsorship inquiries - Email me [email protected] Apple Computer Reviews, tech reviews, home networking and some DIY and upgrades/installs.. Also physics and occasional experiments and a bit of edutainment for interesting historical general concepts. I closely follow the LiDAR sector and specifically a company called Microvision. My name is Nicholas Johnson. My formal education is in mechanical engineering and math - but I am a photographer @nicholas_james_johnson instagram and I work in the art world designing and installing truss and lighting plans for art fairs around the United States. I love computers, and make videos about Apple Silicon, Raspberry Pi 5 and I build PC's. As always, editing help from Nicholas Crider.

Video Description

This is a video comparing the base model M4 Mac mini to the base model M4 MacBook Pro. These computers have the exact same specs. 10 core CPU, 10 Core GPU, 16GB of RAM. People think the M4 MacBook Pro suffers from thermal throttling, but I show here that this is simply not true.
