Serious sleep....just under 9 hours...much needed.
The 14" is a treat....
Watching the near field ( 1 meter ) series in the foreground on the 55" while the dynamic desktop is showing rain failing on the screen in the background. Very nice having the power to handle the various high def streams

Noraly in rural China with long history
Nother brutally hot night 1.30 am a/c struggling
28.4° FEELS LIKE
34.8°C
Sold my 5k iMac after a long slow struggle to get a fresh OS on it. Shower felt very good after that as was brutally hot and muggy on the deck. I'm so enamoured of the 14" Macbook Pro screen, power and speed that the 5k iMac just lost it's appeal plus ran out of OS runway.
Switched to the 27" 2k colour accurate Dell which the MPB ran happily along with the 55" even tho the Dell is now 13 years old!!!
Ran Apple mouse AND the trackpad at the same time.
No need for the cool LED wired mouse I bought but it is a nice little night light as it very slowly and gradually cycles through its multiple LED colours. $2.59 Aus delivered.....China rocks.
14" has so much Apple Silicon power yet never a hint of heat
Chip: Apple M1 Pro
Total Number of Cores: 10 (8 performance and 2 efficiency)
Memory: 32 GB
1 TB flash drive
...netted $150 on the iMac over cost so between the 2015 27" 5k iMac sale, the 2022 Macbook Air sale and a couple other odd items, just about no funds extra needed for the 2021 14" purchase.
By far the best Mac I've owned in 40 years.
Still have the 2018 13" MacBook Pro which is aging poorly ( keyboard
) but will be fine for use on the motorcycle

Said I got an "only GREEN" badge tonight
