My Remote Mac strengths
- Cheapest entry: M4 16 GB at $85/mo
- Root SSH + VNC, Xcode pre-installed
- Physical (non-virtualized) Apple hardware
- CI integrations (GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins)
My Remote Mac limitations
- Memory tops out at 64 GB (M4 Pro at $449/mo or M2 Ultra at $899/mo), no 128 to 256 GB class
