I mostly play strategy games like Civilization and Stellaris. Sometimes Factorio and League of Legends.
I replaced my gaming desktop with the $700 entry-level Mac Mini that came out in 2020; it had the same hardware as a MacBook, just a different form factor. It worked well. I wasn't playing at high graphics, but games worked well. I went back to my full desktop after a few months because I wanted better graphics.
My Mac Mini only had 8 graphics cores on the base M1 with 8GB of RAM. If you bought one of the newer M series devices I think you'd have a pretty good experience if gaming isn't your top priority.
> Does it have Excel with macros?
Didn't Microsoft do a full port of Excel in the last year or two?
