This new Studio? Can't find a config under $5k I'd bother with. But for the MBPs that number still mostly tracks for the average Pro user. (I buy large and run it into the ground so long I mistake the ground for the computer's remains.)

If your computing needs line up, it's a very serviceable approach.

From the look of it, their ops team is having a really bad Friday.

Downside: those files are HUUUUUGE. Have a good reason to do it before pulling one down and trying to work with it.

And I can confirm the radio time app works. (For those curious, it plays the time signal over the speaker and the faint EM from the speaker is more powerful locally than the original radio signal at distance, as well as landing on the correct frequencies.)

The mechanics of a six-hand are similar, using the mechanism that is described here for the date indicator.

Another fun device, though more from an EE POV, are the solar+radio/GPS versions of the same. Automatics can hold power for a few days and need walking around to wind. Solar needs light (any light, though sunlight is always best) and hold power for over a month. Many higher-end models can self-set over radio time or GPS signals as well.

When the world goes tits-up someday, both classes of watches will suddenly become essential, and are already essential for people who spend a good amount of time "unreachable" for work or pleasure.
