Amber’s technologically equipped workspace comprises an iMac, a MacBook Air, an iPad Air, and a notably high-end laser cutter. Let’s explore how each of these components synergizes to empower her productivity at AppleInsider.
Over my time contributing to AppleInsider, I’ve undoubtedly solidified my image as the editorial team’s most cynical tech critic. This perspective will likely resonate through this piece.
When Mike approached me with the idea of describing my workspace setup, I couldn’t help but chuckle. I assumed my arrangement couldn’t possibly measure up to those of my colleagues — and I still hold that belief.
However, amidst the gradual refinement of my tech inventory, what remains might pique some curiosity. At the very least, it offers a refreshing contrast to everyone else’s more robust arrangements.
Minimal Tech Yet Highly Functional
If you’ve ever spent time in fast food service, you probably went through a phase where certain meals lost their appeal after constant exposure. Back in the early 2000s, I worked at a cozy bagel shop in Virginia Beach; after that brief baking stint ended, it took nearly ten years before I could enjoy bagels or cream cheese again.
Strangely enough, working in tech journalism has evoked similar sentiments for me over time. The daily immersion into technology can dampen excitement; eventually leading to frustration with some aspects of the field.
This isn’t an outright condemnation of all tech; I’m definitely not promoting ditching your smartphone! But it’s undeniable that this experience profoundly impacted how I engage with technology on various levels.
So here’s what you would observe if you encountered my work setup — think modern-day Luddite vibes if that’s interesting for you!
The 2021 M1 iMac
Despite minimizing some aspects of technology use recently, there’s something irreplaceable about desktops for me. If forced to choose between parting with my iPhone or iPad versus letting go of my iMac first — I’d gladly say goodbye to those portable devices without hesitation! This sentiment has evolved considerably since just last year when desktops didn’t hold as much appeal for me.
Previously owning an Intel MacBook Pro which was traded in during the acquisition process for this standout machine illustrates just how much I’ve favored desktop computing throughout—it’s simply always been more tailored to my workflow preferences.
While it may not be cutting-edge according to Apple’s latest Silicon standards (think discounted M4 options), this M1 model remains robust with its 16GB RAM and 512GB storage capacity well-suited for graphic design software like Photoshop and Premiere as well as programs necessary for operating both my laser cutter and Cricut machines without any issues whatsoever…

The included Magic Keyboard has been replaced by Lofree Flow (now featuring numeric keys) while Logitech M340 substituted Magic Mouse . A color-coordinated HyperDrive Hub completes this simplified layout.< /P >
