Finally!

My M1 MacBook Pro arrived yesterday.  I ordered it December 6, 2021.

This post (via MarsEdit) is part of setting it up.  I decided not to use Migration Assistant this time, hoping to leave some cruft behind.  My old iMac still works so I do have a fallback if need be.

So far the only drawback is less screen real estate.  Now I’m joining that group of people who want a big  monitor.

It was disappointing that the old (gen 1, I think) Eero mesh network got in the way of ssh access.  Not even a response to ping from the iMac.  Maybe I could reconfigure but instead, why not just use the other local network (GFib)?  No problem.  We hired Eero to improve connectivity upstairs and that’s still a thing, but I can live this way awhile.  (Might as well hope for new AirPorts along with the monitor.)
